SUCKERS! I doubt I'll ever live in Anchorage ever again. If its going to be that cold you might as well live in Fairbanks or out in the sticks somewhere, or you might as well live in Juneau and embrace the rain. Coldest I've seen down here was at ACE when it was 13 degrees, that beats 1 anyday.

My sentiments exactly!:beer:

I thought you lived for the cold

 

[ppragman]

Hell no. I live for the how gorgeous it is here, and how much fun I can have, but if I could enjoy the snow and then be tropical every day I'd do it in a heart beat.

Yeah, not in November though! I am prepared for this type of cold in January or February.

@PPRAGMAN, what kind of operation is that?

I would love to see Alaska from a plane!

Outa curiosity, how long were you an LAB-er?

 

[t-cart]

I was sitting on my deer stand yesterday freezing my azz off. It was 42 degrees. I don't see how you guys take it. Tough guys I suppose.

 

[BajtheJino]

Outa curiosity, how long were you an LAB-er?

Just three months.

Thank God.

 

[Tld]

brrrrrr......but beautiful

 

[ppragman]

Just three months.

Thank God.

LOL, man that place was messed up. I used to think that the stories were exagerations, but the more people I talk to who tell the same stories, the funnier I find it, and the more the exagerations appear to be real.

Are they still issuing violations through the Capstone system or did they wise up and realize people wouldn't use it if big brother was truly watching?

 

[Murdoughnut]

All that money for the fancy computer screen gauges and can't spring for a better Nav/Com?

I didn't know that they were ever using for that around here, and its notoriously inaccurate for that sort of monitoring anyway, "was it turned off, or did he go behind a hill." The Chelton EFIS stays on whether the ADS-B is reporting or not, so what really matters in situations where you need it stays intact.

This makes me miss home.

That's a hell of a lot nicer than our Cherokee six, which is for sale....

You should come down to KGFK in February and see if you like it down here. -65F due to windchill... oh, and sunny . I've always got a futon open.
