That's machias alright! That was 500ce I guess.

Only of a few of us are crazy enough to fly in there in an Eclipse, need to be RIGHT on the airspeed and know a little trick to break the nose gear free and then lock it to make the turn at the end.
I had over a 1000 feet remaining. I think it's around 2,800 feet long.
My buddy has a cabin up there so we spent some time there this summer, awesome area.

Here's 2 of us there. I give up on these pictures loading with the proper orientation! The one in the distance is flown by a 250 hour pilot who transitioned from a Cirrus.

JT upgraded his jet? Or is he still flying with 1.0 version?
