My wife and I recently returned from a trip to Boston. We had some time before needing to come home so we decided to drive to Cape Cod for some sight seeing. On the drive down we developed a flat tire and diverted to Norwood Airport where we could exchange our rental car. While at the Avis counter, the associate saw that we were from AK and said, "there is an Alaska Bush plane outside on large tires and a picture of a dog on the tail".
I couldn't resist and went outside to find Bill Brine aka "Glider" fueling up for his return flight home to the Vineyard. 337AM is a beautiful, IFR, new-wing, 3-blade-MT-driven husky only a few serial numbers away from mine. We had a nice chat about sharks "great whites swim off the cape" among other things. We weren't able to accept the gracious offer for a flight given our time constraints, but it would have been amazing to see great whites from the air.
We had breakfast the next morning at the Chatham airport restaurant called the Hangar B. All I can say is that it was one of the best breakfasts I can ever remember. If I could fly from AK for the $4000 apple French toast tomorrow I would. It was seriously that good.
All that to really say that it was great to see some healthy aviation going on down south. And great to see another Husky driver.
