An Amphibian Beaver has arrived at POM just before last light, not sure where it’s come from.
Interesting visitor at the best of times let alone now.

I assume it is the resident Beaver from Gurney..
Amphib DHC2 Beaver P2-HOR is operated by 'Hands of Rescue Foundation" based at Gurney.
Fairly active pops up a fair bit, I believe they do Medivac flights as well as regular clinics. I think they may also have a C206, but not sure.
Big hangar, well equipped, very nice setup when I was last there a two months ago.
