Fly to Fry's Flying with Steve and Roger to visit Fry's electronics in Portland Oregon. | ||

| This is Steve. | This is Steve's plane. | |
 |  | |
| Steve has a special relationship with his plane. He describes it as a love/hate relationship. He loves flying, hates paying so much for it! | Fry's Electronics is a HUGE computer and consumer electronics store which is popular in California's Silicon Valley. To many, it is "Nerdvana". | |
 |  | |
| Roger got shotgun on the flight to Portland. Roger has a private pilot's licence. | Here you can see Mount Ranier in the distance. | |

| It was quite clouded over on the flight out. Fortunately, we got above most of it at 13,000 feet. | Here you can see the airstrip in Portand quite clearly. On the return trip, we could not see the air strip until we were practically past it! Steve is a very good pilot. | |

| Obligatory shot of the lovely couple by the aircraft. | On the flight back I played the role of copilot. This is what I got to look at. Lots of cool dials! | |
 |  | |
| On the flight back, we accumulated a small bit of ice. Steve called it "Light, Clear Ice". | If you look carfully at the wing, you might see some ice on the leading edge. Steve used the de-icing equipment to crack some of it. | |

| Steve uses a special electric cart to push his plane into the hangar. | ||
