  1. Thanks for posting Steve...
    This little airline seldom gets a mention. They don't do the billboard thing. (Pity KRA won't work with them)

  3. YIKES! That last night shot of the cockpit. At 3,000 feet he has the mixtures yanked all the way back to 12 gal/hr. Looking at the left fuel gauge I think the needle is pointing on 10 gallons so I guess that is one way to get the required 45 minute reserves.
