Man that livery looks good on that Gooney Bird. Awesome shots Greg. :)

I bet the guy working on the tractor north of the barn looked up when you took off. ::)

Thanks for the kind words Greg.

This is one set of pictures I would like to take the time to speak about if that is all right with you... :)

I believe your wonderful shots will make my point...

Have posted many Links on Power Settings, Winds and a little about operating off water however I do not think that I have touched on two important points.

The first we like to call Situation Awareness, know the area you are going into.

I keep apologizing for the slow replies guys, the projects keep piling up. This time it's overclocking my computer and not blowing her up. A good stable OC takes a couple days.

Thank you very much for the kind words Doug and Jake
