Awesome Steve. ? How did those boots go for detecting with the SD 2200D? Looks like they have metal lace lugs. Cheers.

Good luck out there

Hi JW,

I have never had a problem with PI detectors running stock coils and things like boot lugs. 18” and larger coils seemed to be where I might run into the issue.

Yeah Fred, that small plane flying is something else. I have had a lot of small aircraft adventures and am lucky to have had an expert Bush pilot - dear old Dad. Alaska Bush pilot saying: "there are old pilots and bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots!" Knowing when not to fly is the name of the game, and I spent countless hours weathered in on small strips and gravel bars waiting for weather to lift.

If you are ever stranded on a dirt airstrip, help the pilot and yourself by walking the runway and tossing the larger rocks aside and filling any squirrel holes, etc. Lots of gold has been found in airstrips made of mined tailings, and if there is ever a hole you want to fill in, those are the ones! :smile:
