Flew into the Cascade mountains, north of Seattle today.

Saw a little vacation cottage.

No pizza delivery, but will check for smoke.

Absolutely amazing, James. Gives a new meaning to the expression being "on top of the world", but note that you were even higher! Thanks for sharing.

May the 4s be with you/ Jörgen

Not so far into the Cascades this last Sunday. Took a fellow pilot flying who is having some medical issues preventing him from soloing. He flies his own sailplane through an area glider club. His first time in a Fournier. He wanted more climb from the engine, but liked the balanced, light control pressures.
