Not really relevant to the list but can't resist sending out a few of the pics from last weeks trip with the family. The biggest hill in the UK would fit inside the canyon. Getting checked out over the Hoover dam was one checkout that I didn't mind doing. The guy was an ex tour pilot so briefed me on where all the choppers and fixed wing tour planes would be over the dam and the Canyon. Landed at Canyon West and did the ground tour at $75 for a 1/4 mile bus ride and a peer over the edge to see the Colorado at it's muddiest, the other option was $100 a passenger landing fee so we took the local indian tribes cheaper option..... My Esqual is fast becoming an LS as I should get the cowlings back (with red bottom, red pants and leg fairlings) this week, also one of the hangar queens has gone so I have space to put the wings back on. The rebuild will be the easy bit, the paperwork the challenge.
