Here's an article written in the Washington Post that talks about bush plane flying in Alaska. Ted O'Callahan, who flew with us and wrote the piece, got to talk to our pilot Danial and land on the Kahiltna Glacier, piloted by Richard Olmstead. We're glad we got to take him up and that he enjoyed his flight! If you have time, it's a fun read and lends a bit of perspective about the small plane scene in Alaska.
