‘Kotori’ (Bird of luck) 

 Kotori’s language of origin is Japanese. The meaning of Kotori is ‘bird of luck’.

Where is Kotori today?

2023 is underway and the flying has started.  Some adventures are already recorded on the adventure page.  More to come

I am looking to get more than just local flying this year.  Options look good for some fun trips.

A HAPPY UFO  in 10/2019

2020/21 -The New Year was planned to unfold great adventures and then came COVID-19  Major events were cancelled in 2020. 2021 events were just too risky for us to consider.  

Highlight of 2019

Sequim WA to Vancouver BC to Fairbanks AK and back. 16 airport landings, 29 hrs of flying 3736 miles flown and a whole lot of fun.
