Back from Alaska

We delivered the 150 hp PA18 on floats in one piece to it's new owner in Fairbanks.
2,670 miles in 5 days which includes a 1 day layover in High Level Alberta due to weather. 86 mph avg ground speed, boy did I miss my 170.
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, Yukon and Alaska. We had some pretty wild country under our floats.
We saw some nice 170's at the airport in Fairbanks.
If anybody would like more details just send me an e-mail.
