Champs were certified for skis. Flew with them all the time as a young man in western N.Y. As I recall, they were quite massive in profile, were a bit heavier than the wheels, and made a racket on "crunchy" snow. But I much preferred landing with the wheels on in the light fluffies. The first second after touchdown, the snow engulfed the airplane and you hung on for the ride, hoping you stayed straight and upright. Oh to be young and foolish again, or maybe just young :-) Doug
