I understand the getting expensive part.

oh come on you can do it and it will be fun. I attended a POA fly-in from Vale, OR. to Gastons Lakeview, AR.

yes I sure hope we have some nice weather. I am sure looking forward to this weekend.

Here it is taking off from a narrow gravel road.

that is what mine is a 1959 Cessna 182 B.

June 28 -30 at Smiley Creek, ID. U87 7200 ' elevation 4900 ' of grass runway. There isn't an air show or many activities. Just a group to pilots getting together and having fun. Some do flyouts, and some just do R&R. It is a good group and this is the 5th year. Each year they select an airplane...

I have a fly in at Smiley Creek, ID this coming week end for straight tail 182 airplanes. they voted last year to put my airplane on the T shirts.

Why don't you come out to Vale and a couple of old geezers will go flying in my old geezer airplane. I would love to do that. We don't have much traffic out here in the mountains.

my son has retired from the Nuclear power plant in AZ. Maybe he would fly back with me. I could probably talk my good friend Carol into flying back with me. I don't know.Carol and I at Gastons.

I thought this was good.

I am afraid I have made my last Gaston's run. It is a long run form Or. and I doubt i will be there.

some real good advice here. I do 4 hour legs as well, I like to have a PLB like a Spot to take along. I usually use the upper cross of the Rockies, I do a line from Burley, ID. to Rock Springs, WY. that crosses at a lower area. Just make sure you have a plan "B" and don't neglect to use it...

thanks, I am blessed I know. Lucky or whatever you want to call it. I still walk with my dog Buddy and pass my physicals. i am on Basic Med and can still fly ok.

That is a long haul for an 89 year old pilot. but I sure enjoyed my last trip, and all the other trips to Gaston.

That is a good question, Dave, I will keep flying even if they do. I hope they let me still wear their cap.

Oh yea, we went to a flyin at Carey, ID. the 1st of June. Carey is over close to Sun Valley, ID. it was a good turnout. i don't have any pictures as my copilot took the pictures and they are all on her phone. Here is one a Garden Vallely fly in. My 182 B.

I have been a member of the UFOs for 9 years now. I will see if I can find a picture of something. Picture of me taking my 89th birthday flight down main street of S49 Vale, OR.

Hi POA pilots, I used to be on this forum some but got away from it for some unknown reason. I just wanted to let you know that I am still flying at 89 years old. I flew from S49 Vale, OR. to KBKX Buckeye, AZ. in Feb. to go to the AOPA Airfare. That was a great flight, I have a son that lives in...

The link to the Minam Lodge is wrong in my thread here is the correct one: www.minam-lodge.com try this one.

I fly a lot in the Idaho and Oregon Back countries. I have some videos here: www.youtube.com/skybobb . The Idaho Aviation Association keeps a lot of the back country strips up, they furnish care takers and vehicles at some strips like Johnson Creek which is about 4 miles from Yellow Pine, ID...
