It has been one year since the engine (and channel) blew up. For this mission, I took a dentist and her assistant son down to San Quintin, Baja California Mexico as part of the Flying Samaritans Mother Lode chapter free clinic.
Flying Samaritans is a volunteer organization which operates free medical clinics in Baja California, Mexico. Doctors, dentists, nurses, translators, pilots and support personnel drive or fly to clinics in private aircraft.
This was my first flight crossing international borders and the longest distance I've travelled since I purchased the airplane in 2020.
