West Coast Flying Adventures 
Hi Ney!
Great to meet you and your son in Escalante the otherday.
And many thanks for the great book. If I was going to do a book I would aspire to this.
Alas I have only made 30 of your 50 classic destinations, so I have some work to do.
Two days after we met, my wife Marilynn and I were at Ibex, her first time, I showed her Notch Peak. But I have never been on it, so now I have inspiration to get up there.
Great to find your website too. I am planning a flying trip to Wrangell St Elias area next summer and you have given me some more information.
Again great to meet you and hope our paths cross again.
Paul
Hi Paul,
Nice to meet you in Escalante. We may both have more time in the future and perhaps we’ll meet again there. 30 out of the 50? I haven’t heard of anyone that has done more – and obviously you’ve done many similar adventures into strips that I couldn’t dream of going in my 210.
See you in Escalante! – Ney
