Couple from the last trip. Had a 4 day with a 21 hour layover in Durango. Had a great captain, lots of fun to fly with. We walked around town at night and found a neat pub/restaurant, had some beer & BBQ chicken pizza, good stuff!

Denver to Durango. Cleared for the visual to 21 about 20 miles out at ~10k AGL, autopilot & flight director off - was a fun approach.

This is the hydraulic line that sprung a leak and made for my first real man gear ext. One of the brackets that held the line down and in place had snapped. Over time the rudder cables wore into it and finally broke through far enough to leak. Thank god the cables are steel and the line aluminum.

I don't think this plane has been washed since it was made.

DRO is a fun airport to fly into. Busy too. I live a hop skip and a jump away from there.

^^I'm not sure but the only 8cyl GA plane I can think of is the Comanche 400

Comanche 400

Bandit, DA has a decent paint job now. It looks almost too good to be a freighter.

Yeah I know they repainted most of their fleet. They also added some nice Garmin 430's too. I run into them every now and then. I just haven't run into Royal
270, 698, 101, or 1073. I have chanced 270 back and forth to laredo a few times.
