TD, you bet! Merrill Field was the place
. Good fun for a young man with no worries pre-9/11
. We might even have flown for the same company at Merrill.... Had been around since late 50s, family-owned and the Chief Pilot was also with Wien Alaska and later on Alaska Airlines. Know who I`m talking about?
But of course, you get to hone your stick and rudder skills at lot more out in the real world (bush) where your flying actually makes a difference to locals.
Haven`t been back since, but I will within a couple of years. There`s something about the place that slowly draws you back
