Well yesterday I put the skis on the Kitfox and flew it for a while.  Earliest ever for skis in 20 years.  Here is a short video of once around the pattern.  JImChuk

Maybe the "experts" from the seventies who were predicting an impending ice age were right . Yea na!  Ski flying looks like so much fun.

Love when the trees are all frosted like that. Must have been an early morning flight?

It was actually in the late afternoon.  We got dumped with a ton of snow, trees and brush are laid over all over the place cause the snow is stuck to them.  I got a bit more air time this evening.  And Brett,  I saw a smaller lake was starting to freeze around the edges today as well.  More nights like we had last night with the 3 degree F for a low temp will do that.  Mn,  you got to love it!  JImChuk

Nice picture Larry!  The snow coming off the skis makes it all that much better.  JImChuk
