Pictures of the day: Flyhound

By General Aviation News Staff · September 29, 2016 ·

Gary Lanthrum sent in these photos, noting: “The pictures show my dog Alma with her flying scarf (ear muffs were added after the picture was taken)…Our approach up the Skykomish River valley, short final into S88, the three planes parked next to the picnic area and the table where we actually had lunch. It doesn’t get much better than this!”

    Gary – Beautiful scenery, and you have a fantastic co-pilot! Hope the picnic basket had some goodies for her. Keep flying, Alma.
