North to South leg 6 - Gatwicksteve - 03-10-2012

The next leg of this epic trip takes me from Cordova, Alaska to Yakutat, Alaska, and was flown in a true Alaskan classic, the Curtiss C-46

After departing PACV, the weather was good, but the forecast ay PAYA was not so nice

Steve,

rumors say that it might be warmer down south, but that only might be rumors. Biggrin

And once more some very good pictures and I am also looking forward to your next reports.
