Expect banging, belching and an occasional manly fart as you roar down the runway at full power. (I have found that the engine can make similar noises)
Made it safely to Furnace Creek. Came in a little hot and high, so I dropped the gear and flaps and descended at around 2500 fpm to make the threshold. Not used to seeing the altimeter needle drop below 0'

Departing L06 Furnace Creek for O24 Lee Vining. Gotta get out of Death Valley before it gets too hot.

Down safely at O24 Lee Vining. A bit of turbulence on approach, but otherwise an uneventful flight. My passenger looks a little green, so we'll take a break for a while to let his land legs get under him.

Down safe at O68. Had to bust the soft ceiling briefly to avoid some trees. I think the banker may have soiled himself somewhat. He ran to the bathroom as soon as we parked the plane, and I haven't seen him since.

I'll be headed over to the Top of the Mark later this evening for drinks and a few tall stories.

Congrats Pat.
Congrats on being the first of us "bronzers" to make it in.
