Well there I was enjoying a nice cup of tea in my office at Rio Grande (SBRG), when a call came in that I was to get anti-venom for a snake bite to Sao Lourenco Do Sul (SSRU), the pick-up of the anit-venom was to be at Pelotes Intl. (SBPK), so I leapt into my Super Cub and headed north...
Red lining the engine!

Pick-up the meds at SBPK, a puff of smoke means my Lycoming is spinning again...

Yanking it onto a bearing of 060...

Nice view, pity I haven't got time to admire it!
Image
Brazil looks so nice and peaceful from up here...
Image
Down safe and sound, I think I'll have a cup of tea and a gentle flight home :)

Hi Air, well its easy, just do an insert image, then press return to go to the next line and insert image, then press return to go to the next line and insert image etc etc ;D
But please remember no more than 500k or 8 pictures to a thread ;)

Hey Mark!
Those are some nice shots....good to see you flying in Brazil....spcially in the south!
But "Rescue in Rio" remind me Rio de Janeiro not Rio Grande......and its not Pelotes its Pelotas
