N-8SCV9 Aviat A-1 Husky

[der_On]

Recently I took all my FSE Money to finally buy my own aircraft. It's an Aviat Husky with IFR/AP that first came from Europe and was left in Alaska by the last owner. Now I'm slowly transfering this little plane to the BC area to WAC. Eventually I will sell it to WAC there and get another plane for the money.

These are my first long range routes and its really interesting to see the landscape changing slowly, deal with the real weather conditions and still try to make some profit by choosing assignments on the way.

This is my route so far:

Congratulation to your new Husky, it's a nice area for your tour

Congrats!

I think a Beaver or F33 is what I'll be working towards!

Thanks a lot.

Today I've passed Winnipeg and landed in Regina Int. Made a total of 321.9 nm in one day. Thanks this airplane has an autopilot or such long legs wouldn't be possible.
Somehow I miss short range flights without AP in British Columbia. Weather was very stormy and icy most of the time and I had to refly a couple legs with better weather, because the plane crashed due to icing.
A lot of IFR approaches in really bad weather conditions, which are mostly not that hard to master in a Husky. Guess it has it's name for a reason

More then halfway thru. Soon I will reach WC area and start to do WC jobs again.

Don't say such things!
When I bought the two Huskys that i used in the Caribbean, they were only VFR equipped and I installed further equipment not until they were transfered to my FBO at Santa Isabel.

Finally I arrived at Carlson Field. The last leg was really the best, as now the scenic tours begin.

I think, I will continue flying a bit within WAC area in BC with my Husky, until I sell it. If anybody is interested in owning it (for the group) please tell me.

Is there any photoscenery available for that area?

How can I rent/lease this aircraft to the WAC?

[Snow]

Go to the aircraft page. At the "Select Action" popup menu, you'll find an option for lease.
This will open another page where you can set the lessee.

Thank you. It's now leased to WAC.
