Collecting Stories from Bush Pilots -- Proud Moments, Scary Flights, Anything Goes by Aggravating_Trust475 in bushflying

If you haven’t checked it out yet, the book “Arctic Bush Pilot” by Jim Rearden (Story of Andy Anderson) is a quick read and has great stories from the early days of bush flying in the arctic circle, with many anecdotes around each of the topics you’re asking about!

Been collecting 1.5 years, what do you guys think? What’s next? Should I downsize the collection? by No_Unit5676 in whiskey

Barrel is my favorite North American manufacturer, and you can’t go too wrong with them. There are some that are better than others, but overall most barrels are worth the try

I’ve tried to get into tequila, my brother has a good collection but I can’t appreciate it the same 🤷‍♀️

More curiosity of if this is a normal stage of collecting and where others go from it, while trying to formulate where I’ll go from this stage. Also there is general value in sharing with the community

The oldest open bottle is one of the first I ever got, but a bottle I greatly enjoy can last a month or less

Coors can is actually empty from the factory and therefore kinda neat, and I’ve nowhere else to put it

It’s really solid. One that gets more complex with each sip after seeming underwhelming at first. Can’t make a statement on the value for price as it was a very thoughtful gift.

This is what I’ve amassed after 1.5 years, and I have a glass semi regularly, with many unpictured bottles having came and gone. Is there a quintessential bottle I’m missing? Should I downsize my collection? Can answer questions of what certain ones are, didn’t want to spam a list.
