Grand Canyon

Postby Fly2e » Fri Mar 14, 2008 6:06 pm

I was there over 10 years ago and came across these shots.
Nothing much but was surprised I had the last shot!
I do not even know where or why it was there!
::)


Shot taken from our hot air balloon ride!

Nice Dave........looking at the vastness of these shots makes it easier to understand why Fossett hasn't been found yet......large wide open spaces and such a small plane that he was flying.....I only wish you had something in there for relative size..........and the Connie......real nice.......... :o

A balloon ride is definitely a great idea for a good look at that... very cool.

Nice shots Dave, I will have to ferret mine out too.

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.

I have many shots but they are not digital and I would have to scan them. The only reason I have these is because I used to have a scanner and I must have been using the canyon photos to test the scanner.

Would love to go back there and shoot them again with my Nikon digi!  ;)

Yes, the balloon ride was amazing. We took off at sunrise. Absoloute stillness and quiet as we floated over this surreal place!

Simply amazing... it looks great on photo, but I convinced the real life view must be overwhelming...

Nice Connie...  ;)
