There is nothing better than flying a TBM along the Olympic mountains on a cold, crisp, winter's day.
You taxi clear in front of Clay Lacy Aviation. You may not be aware, but EADS Socata's office and TBM demonstrotor was based Clay Lacy Aviation in 2005 (Troutdale, Oregon prior to then). My favorite demonstration destinations include Friday Harbor, Blakely Island, and Hood River.
the reason i know this is I went to college in olympia - wasn't a pilot back then, but now that I am would like to come out there and do some flying (san juan islands, some mountain strips maybe). beautiful plane, the ultimate plane for the IFR private pilot - enjoy
Thank you for NOT adding music to the post. :)

Would it have killed you to throw a little Kenny Loggins or Harold Faltermeyer in there?
