Hi Jim,
Hey hey my good fellow I have many many hours in twin-Otters flying on
assignments in the High-Arctic shooting on research projects. Many of them
equipped with skis for landing on the frozen Arctic Ocean.
cheers,
ted

I stopped by the airport and the Airport Manager told me that the 
skydiving business had just acquired a new airplane, a DeHavilland DHC-6 
Twin Otter.  He was enroute to fuel it up.  I had only the iPhone, but 
took a few photos.

The fueling operation:

The DHC-6 interior as configured for jumpers:

Comments and critiques welcomed.
