California Winter

Postby BigTruck » Tue Feb 14, 2012 5:45 pm

I never tire of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the winter.  These shots have all had the begeezus compressed out of them, but there's still beauty there.

Wonderful pics of the Sierras!... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

...Majestic, is a good word!

Gives you an idea how Steve Fossett's flight went disastrously wrong!

Mountains, Weather, and Aircraft..a dangerous mix!

It looks so pristine, In the fourth one I see old man winter and his goat. Look closely at the snow covered bushes in the centre and use some imagination! :)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
