Glacier Landing in the Swiss Alps

One of my many trips to Switzerland. I had the pleasure of flying around the Alps and making a couple of landings on a glacier in a Maule Rocket turbine aircraft made in Moultrie, Ga. USA. It was a wonderful experience then a day of skiing before heading back First Class on Then Swiss Air, Zurich - Atlanta
