Alaska Flying Trip Story
Ken and Cessna 170B 2430D have enjoyed 27 great years of flying together, including 6 round trips to Alaska in 1988, 1991, 1993, 1997, 2000, 2004, and 2005, flying as far north as Point Hope, Alaska.

Most flying time, however, has been throughout the Pacific Northwest (Oregon & Washington) and Inter-mountain West (Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Nevada).
N2430D attended several International Cessna 170 Conventions, including those in Anchorage, Alaska; Kalispell, Montana; Roswell, New Mexico; Durango, Colorado; and Everett, Washington. Idaho back-country fly-ins have been an all time favorite flying destination.
