A Beaver Plane
Horizon Airlines, which is based out of Seattle, has decided to paint four of their planes to match the four major universities in Washington and Oregon. I’m most excited about the Beaver plane, and very uncertain how I would feel if they asked me to get on a duck plane. I know that there are [...]
