Las said: WTF- 2 or 3 times a year I party with my neighbor John Toppenberg (Alaska Wildlife Alliance - Joslin's outfit). So far, no guns have been drawn.... Good thing too, cuz he's likely a whole lot better at it...
Las if he brings out a model 29 you want to be standing behind the firing line with him and not down range. kwg

don't know if he's even still flying or not, but he earned that name....the hard way

 I knew I didn't know the outfit. Only current "W" I can think of is centered out of your backyard - and they don't dabble out here anymore like they did a few years ago. (Now we have "your" other guys; Hayduke Airlines.  ) And, of course, Wien (and the subsequent MarkAir) haven't flown for a few years - and they weren't exactly only a NW AK airline anyway (but it was fun to fly 737s onto the gravel runways they landed them on in those days.  )

Gee's MarkAir, now that is an airline I have not thought about in years. Use to ride them to and from Bethel in the old days.

FIL used work for MarkAir as a flight instructor. I think Mark Air pissed in Alaska Airlines wheaties one too many times. They were is a dead-heat race for awhile to go broke as I recall. Those were good days to fly cheap. Safety may have played second fiddle I'm sure; and of course AS Gold Coast was permanently sealed into oblivion with all that.
