Pilots and updates from outside your usual circle.
Norway at golden hour. Cub, no autopilot.
Alps before the weather builds. TBM when it allows.
Alaska strips and gravel. If it looks quiet, fly it.
Islands in a light twin. Land before the afternoon wind.
Wind, glaciers, long valleys. Turboprop preferred.

Just shut down at Leknes. The wall was sharper than last week — stayed east of the ridge the whole way and caught the last bit of sun on the rock face. If anyone wants company on this route tonight, shout. Cub weather, no autopilot.

Three islands before the meltemi woke up. Rule still stands: morning only. Afternoon wind turned the last hop into a workout.

Out of Innsbruck before the valley filled. Ridge still clear at 09:15. Posted a few frames from the crossing below.

Hangar tip: if you are new to Norway VFR, fly the Lofoten wall once in clear weather before you try it with low cloud. The scenery will still be there next week.

Gravel between the lakes. Approach took more patience than fuel. Reminder: if the strip looks quiet, it usually is — until the crosswind picks up on short final.

Along the ice wall mid-afternoon. Gusty, visual the whole time. Fuel planned for a go-around that actually happened — glad I listened to my own briefing.
