Did you land there yesterday? I heard someone going in while I was coming in to KESC.
Did you know there was a King of Beaver Island once upon a time? The museum is well worth a visit. If you see Paul Welke, say hi from us. We share a mutual friend in the shape of one George Cormack, Islander/Trislander guru.
Have a safe trip home!
If you have the time, you may want to swing by KTVC.
It's where I grew up and got my license at. Easy going Class D airspace.
Looks like a very cool stop after the hustle of Airventure.
Ed, if there's a better "ambassador for helicopters" out there, I haven't heard of them...! These are beautiful photos that speak volumes to what I always thought helicopter flying was all about. That's quite the magic carpet you've got there.

Thanks for sharing. I wanted to visit the Michigan U.P. and stop at Beaver Island on my way to KOSH but weather prevented it.
Maybe next year...
