Flying in Samedan, Switzerland.  Lovely scenery and challenging flying, a perfect combo!

Arriving from Biggin Hill

Then I departed to Shoreham

Mountains everywhere!

I like this layering

Well, the deice boots took off the snow once I got out of it ;)

I actually almost hit a mountain or two on the way out...both on purpose and because the autopilot decided it would rather dive than climb ;D

Do I need to go inverted loop something in a big something to prove my manliness to you ozzy? :D

Great job Jayhawk!
Which citation is that? Is it the mustang(sorry, I dont know my cessnas :-[)
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
