Round the US: Fun in San Fransico

[Sock]

I couldn't cut the number of screens down because this plane just loves the "camera!"  So it'll be two posts.

While climbing out off the aircraft something in hangar caught my eye.  It turned out to be an elderly gentleman waxing a beautifuly restored P-51D.  We got to talking about his warbird and mine.  We trade birds for an hour.

Taking off on runway 28R after a short check-out in the 51.


Climbing out with that sweet Merlin sound!


Just a pretty picture.






Mmmm...The Golden Gate, maybe I should...


Fly through it?  Sure.


Hey a MD-80 lets "shot it down."

Nevermind, it's climbing to fast.

Part II:
Coming in for a landing, this nimrod wouldn't get off the runway so I had to go around, so I strafed him.


I went around again.


This time I decided to jump the guy on the runway and land in fron of him.


Went fine...


But the Tower was peeved.  


The elderly genlteman had a good laugh about it.


We had a good chuckle about my landing.  He really enjoyed my Jug, and said it was to bad we didn't meet up in the blue, we could have had a mock dogfight.

Next it's up to a small airport near Seatle, some of you may know.

Lovely pics and a nice plane.

Yeah I bet you did have a good chuckle. Right up to the time the guy from the FAA arrived to take your licence away

I don't know everything, but I believe the above picture is not a nimrod, the one below however is!  ;D
