| From mid-December. Went on a trip with the family before I started training. Should be fairly easy for some of you to figure out. Captain_Bob not allowed to answer this one! ![]() My son is even trying to tell you where we were!

| Well..that didn't take long. Have you flown in there?? I figured a lot of ONT guys may know what it is.

| No, never went in there. I wanted to take the Seminole in when I was instructing in the central valley in 2006 but ended up doing Catalina and South Lake Tahoe and other places instead. I pass by it on the SEAVU and RIIVR arrivals now. The hills in the background looked like just the right amount of snow cover to be there right now from what I saw a few days ago and the water at the end of the runway sealed the deal!

| That's a pretty nice airport. I just realized they have a graphical ODP: http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0801/09469OKACO.PDF Is the terrain really that high up there? I don't think a trainer can climb that high. ![]() |

| Would've guessed Big Bear too, but someone beat me to it. Never flown in, but seen it from the mountain when snowboarding! :-) Looks like a great airport to land at. |
