Best of 2007 part 1: Aztec Ride

Postby Flying Buckeye » Wed Dec 19, 2007 9:32 pm

I took these shots from a Piper Aztec at the open house for the Wright Patterson AFB aeroclub. It was a nice ride with not too much turbulence or ear popping :). Everyone in the Aztec went weightless for about two seconds when my cousin who was riding in the copilots seat pushed too far forwad on the yoke ;D.

Here's the Aztec N54130.

A large group of my family, and my aunts uncles and cousins went to the open house. A few of them are in ths Piper Arrow which is on the runway while I'm on the taxiway.

This is an aerial view of U.S. Air Force Museum taken just after takeoff.

Our plane passed over a golf couse which looked interesting from the air.

Everything looks interesting from the air... that's why high-wings are better. ;)
But from the back seat of an Aztec, you can shoot around the wing... well done.

I'm always amazed how hazy the air is most of the time and that you can, usually, only know that from the air.  Good pictures.
