Thanks for posting Gary.

I understand you dont fly that bird in the winter anymore.. but if you were to do it again.. What would you different? Wider or Longer skis? seemed to belly out there in the deep stuff

Got any dimension you can post please. pics?

I love winter flying! Been doing it long time now..but never with a turbine or a plane as heavy as the spirnt all fueled up.

I still fly the same jet on the same skiis every year. I would not make the skiis any different. They work very well. As I mentioned earlier, they will lift right out of the snow as you start moving.
