DSCN2601 * Very unforgiving terrain between Nyac and the outside world.

DSCN2604 * Vince shows off his high-tech avioncs package.

DSCN2605 * Hmmm, Nyac looks like winter....

DSCN2616 * Flying down the valley into Nyac, the dredge tailings are obvious.

DSCN2621 * Vince likes a steep base-final trajectory, even with 5000'+ of strip available. Must be out of habit.
