Flew to a small airstrip today, when I say small I’m not exaggerating. Whiskey 10 is a 25’ x 2,400' airfield located in a narrow gap between some big trees! This is a very cool airport, I’ll be back!
I learned to fly on a small airport in western Massachusetts but the trees weren’t literally feet from your wing tips. I’m very thankful for today’s experience, I honestly enjoyed the challenge of going into this little airstrip. Landing at the beautiful location nestled in the PNW trees on a small island captivated and rewarded my inner pilot. Ginger is one day out of her annual inspection and the flying adventures have already begun!
Making these videos provides opportunities for improvement, especially when I notice an error in my radio calls. On the way into W10 I was planning to do right traffic, approaching from the north I had to fly to the left of the runway. My error was reporting “left downwind” and “left base”, I should have said right downwind and right base. I know my left from my right, this is a learning moment and I will double-check my calls in the future! 🙁👍
Please subscribe, like the video and leave a helpful comment. Stay tuned good people, I have some fun flights planned & lots to share. Thanks for watching and I'll see you out there!!
