Not experimental, but I'm proud of this moment, so I wanted to share it with you all. ;)

I did it! First landing on snow! Yep, those are my tracks. Oo-rah! Thanks to the air traffic controllers at Milwaukee's Timmerman Airport for allowing me to land on closed runways (at my risk, of course).

Couldn’t take any outside shots because I’m flying at a Class D, but hopefully I’ll get more at the EAA Skiplane Fly In this weekend. Maybe I'll run into some of you there.
