				My first pass was two steps.

6-cell remote pair 35 from r8c2 to r5c9; r5c2<>35.

				Two steps.
 
 
1. Coloring on 5, which was an extension of empty Remote Pairs on 35.
 
 
2. Flightless M-Wing on 13 with pincer transport. |

Thanks. As best as I can recall, this was a standard wing with standard connection and standard transport and didn't involve any of my newly acquired M-Wing knowledge. But I always like to use M-Wings of any variety. |
