I was flying around the Kenai Peninsula and came upon the kind of strip that I really love - a very STOL... on a plateau! Not only that, but over trees while diving pretty much straight down because of the hills on Final. This is Oyster Cove - what a wonderful place. With a 14 kt crosswind, I guess I could have taken it from either direction. But, it is no fun coming in over the water, so I went around and approached from over the hills: Pretty much just point the nose straight down! Then, try your hardest to bleed the speed off as quickly as possible. Stand on the brakes! Not much runway left. I really like this kind of place, so I shall probably spend a few days here just practicing landings... I mean, having fun! ;D Best regards. Luis
