Alot of people is waiting for their Christmas mail and presents. The weather has been bad for a while and I not been able to deliver mail for over a week. I decided to give it a try today, as a last chance to get the mail out to the settlers before Christmas. It was snowing when I left Yakatat.

 

The flight went fine up to Situk. My Jenny never turn her back to me and soon I put her tires down at Situk, and a lot of happy people was welcoming me. After a short stop, delivering mail and loading mail I was on my way to Dangerous River.

 

On my way down to Tanis Mesa. The people there had not had a visit from me for over to weeks, and I know they was eager to get their mail

 

The weather got better and I had a great flight down to Tanis Mesa

 

 

At last at Alsek River and my last stop. Isn't Jenny a beauty?

 

 

 

 

Isn't Jenny a Beauty?

 

 

And finaly on my return to Yakutat

 

Great flight, really good to take Jenny out of the hangar and had a lovely but cold flight in the open cockpit.

Flotte bilder og flott historie.

Men bilde 5 og 8 kunne vært foruten den lillafargen på himmelen.

Kameraer på den tiden taklet ikke farger.

Rett og slett kjempemessig spør du meg!
