More Beach Running - Alaska Bush Flying

4 days ago
30

Another day of regaining muscle memory that was degraded over the winter. Beach running is where it begins as this is the first area to lose all the snow and ice. And it's awesome to be back on wheels. Keeping the plane just in ground effect and wheel landing and taking back off again. On a sloped beach.

Although I've never seen anyone else do this I have seen the beach over flown by other airplanes. It is rare but it does happen. Important to keep situational awareness.

This type of flying has dangers. Don't try this without first receiving instruction from a competent off airport pilot.
