Holiday Vacation

Christmas Eve has arrived and we packed our bags as we set forth towards Glacier National Park to visit our relatives.


We left our cosy home in Minnesota as we departed towards Glacier
Image

We climbed and gained speed slowly as we traveled at Mach .91, leaving large airliners in the mist.
Image

Flaps down as we descend into the stormy weather of Glacier Park Int.
Image

We touched down smoothly and began to taxi towards the parking baracks.
Image

While taxiing we decided to park next to our fellow personal Jet, aka, the wannabe.
Image

Beautiful and the Bland, Turtle and the Rabbit, the Citation and the Learjet, oh do I love the Citation.
Image


After flying for 2.3 hours from Minnesota to Montana at mach .91, we landed and had a great time with our relatives that night after church!


Hope you enjoyed! Happy Holidays!

Great to own a Citation X with your family, but hey, what where your average frames on that flight? ::)

LoL, the framerates were pretty rediculous, going as low as 40 through the clouds, when at high altitude I was getting 95 and 104 in the 2d cockpit.

Thanks for the comments guys

My PC does alright!

Thanks for the comments though, I am hoping for a new Graphics card, as I see peoples shots that just make the quality of my look sad!

Nice shots! I love the X. One of these days I'm gonna have to get it. I love how it dwarfs the 45.

I am in love with the Citation, you dont even know...when I am flying my piper archer in real life turning on finals to runway 30 marshall, and hear the the Citation is coming back from the cities, I fly around for 45 more minutes just so I can watch it land, it is such a beautiful plane....

I go to the hanger and take so many pictures of it with my digital, its my favorite aircraft ever...so dont make fun of me  :'(
