Red Sucker Lake May 2008

I had the good fortune see a Curtis C-46 Commando land and takeoff at Red Sucker Lake Manitoba, while I was on a day work trip to Red Sucker Lake and God Lake Narrows. The Piper Cheyenne we flew in on was chartered through Fast Air (great company, fantastic service), all in all a perfect day to be flying. (click on photo's to enlarge)
