Photo of the Day — The Hover Approach

I was out with my friends Gar and Jan enjoying an excellent afternoon of flight.  They were in Lulu (the yello cub) and I was in my Cessna 185.  We landed on a couple of gravel bars, and then shot some landings, and then destroyed a coleman fuel can with Gar’s .375 H&H Magnum.  We flew over to another Glacier about 20 miles away, and the wind increased from calm to a steady 30 mph breeze.  Nothing makes you look like a hero in an airplane like a nice 30 mph wind allowing the hover approach.  Even the 185 becomes awfully cub-ish with 30 on the nose.  It was a great time.
