After being the Go-Fer at LAX, I decided to take a run to San Fran to see the sights for myself and found that there are many ways to cross the gap and still use the Golden Gate Bridge.............
First ya gotta make an opening.....its not anything that all you others wouldn't do, so here is my arrival.....

Then is over, under, around and through.................

was gonna try a landing on the "Rock" when I flew by, and as for the other locations, I am not familiar with where they are, but if you point me in the right direction, I'll see if they have any drive-thru facilities

Be scared, be very very afraid. The boy is back with a new joystick (after nearly a month!), and even less braincells! So first flight out I took my dearly beloved Seafire S.47 for a quick spin around and through San Fransisco.
First a look at the bridge
Image
Then a look at the other end of the bridge
Image
Then a quick trip downtown for a pint
Image
Followed by checking out a crane
Image
And finally touchdown at KSFO for tea and biscuits

the transamerica building is the slightly pyramid looking thing to ozzy's immediate right, it is the thing casting the shadow

Well one thing is for sure Mark, you have proven that being deprived can set you in good stead to need that FIX and when you go to get it, you will always give a good account of yourself......you my friend are a Crazy MAN !......someone is going to come and take you away for flying in this manner...........you wouldn't catch me doing this sort of stuff........no way.....not me.....I am normal......ask anyone in the cuckoos nest............
