5.00What a truly magical part of the world. Being able to fly over the gorges and land was a truly breathtaking and humbling experience from beginning to end. Asia was a fantastic pilot and she absolutely added to this experience with her deep love and respect for the land and her clear joy in doing what she does. This was an unforgettable experience and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to do it.
