Flight PR82397

  • Submitted By: Brian Springer
  • Departure Airport: Fairbanks Intl (PAFA)
  • Arrival Airport: McKinley Natl Park (PAIN)
  • Aircraft: CESSNA 210L (N567LJ)
  • Flight Time: 0.3
  • Date Submitted: 02/10/2016
  • Route: I will be using primarily visual navigation with this flight, with the aid of GPS since I am not completely familiar with the flight path. The approach to PAIN was completely visual, and I'm glad. I had to climb to 6,000 feet to clear the Alaskan Mountain Range (Mt McKinley), and then I saw the airport at around 1,800 feet, so I had to do some fast dropping to get to the runway.

Brian Springer The runway had no lights, but another pilot there was kind enough to light it up with his landing lights for me. It was a small runway, and airport, in a valley just on the other side of a high mountain, so some interesting flying to make the landing was needed. It was a beautiful flight, and I enjoyed the scenery, even in the dark.
