Steve was flying his Zenith CH 601XL-B and was following the major river-ways wherever possible on the entire trip there.<br /> As Steve was nearing central Missouri we flew to meet him in the air, flying the Zenith STOL CH 750 Super Duty (and we were joined by Dennis in his STOL CH 701). We arrived at the Missouri River early so decided to land on a river sand bar to check it out. (With his smaller wheels, Steve decided wisely not to land on the soft sandbar.) After, we flew the three planes along the river to Jefferson City (KJEF) for lunch, and Steve went on his way east...<br /> More about Steve's flight and links to his photos: <a href="http://bit.ly/2J0BVYg">http://bit.ly/2J0BVYg</a> Landing on Missouri River sandbar - two airplanes - off airport tag:zenith.aero,2016-12-07:2606393:Video:538817 2016-12-07T22:28:09.992Z Sebastien Heintz https://zenith.aero/profile/SHeintz <a href="https://zenith.aero/video/landing-on-missouri-river-sandbar-two-airplanes-off-airport"><br /> <img alt="Thumbnail" height="180" src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2180860608?profile=original&amp;width=240&amp;height=180" width="240"></img><br /> </a> <br></br>With the Missouri River level low again we decided to fly out and land on a river island sandbar, just east of Hermann, Missouri.
