    Flew right over Yellowstone at 16k and east of Bozeman if I recall :) I remember thinking... hey, I think Lisa lives out here somewhere :D

    Good friend of mine is an FO at Envoy and he loves the company... not sure if that helps at all :laugh:

    So this is a fun one...

    I sent 3 pilots in the P210 to Great Falls, Montana to support one of our customers (avalanches and what not near Glacier National). They left Tucson at 0500 yesterday and landed in Grand Junction, CO for fuel / restroom break. They took off around 0900 direct to Great Falls. About an hour out the airspeed on the G600 and the analog ASI went nuts (indicating 290 kts). Pitot heat on, alternate static didn't change situation. They were at 16k in IMC. Landed safely at KGTF in marginal VFR and started troubleshooting in the -5 degrees.

    Turns out the pitot heat failed. Fly safe out there ladies and fellers... :)

    And a fun little note: If you go to the wiki page for Cessna 210, about midway down on the right there's a picture of our plane with it's former Canadian registration :)
