Some randoms from 47N

Took the flight portion of my BFR today... in-flight pics were out of the question, as I was busy (see my "Real Aviation" post), but I took a few on the ground...
Was a good 40 mins. late getting there because of this: I think it was an enclosed car-carrier, but not sure. As usual, the biggest delay was due to all the dingbats slowing down to have a look... there were still two lanes open!!!  >:( ("Just go, idiots; the ambulance has left already...") :-/


After my flight, watched a couple of arrivals...

Not as close to the wires as it looks:

The proper way to land a C150 (thank God there are no pix of my landing!!):

Nice one. Did you forget to upload #2?

#3 could almost be Popham.

We call this rubbernecking. Joe Public has an insatiable morbid curiosity. These idiots usually get in the way of the emergency services or cause more accidents.

Nope; decided not to. It was a shot of the runway taken from just outside the FBO; decided it wasn't good enough.

#3 could almost be Popham.

I'd say Central Jersey Regional is practically equivalent to Popham... a little "country" airport. There's also a soaring club there- something I'm going to look into, later.

Oddly enough, that's what we call it, too. It's infuriating... sure, one should slow down a little to make sure there's room, watch for debris, etc... but invariably after crawling for miles, I find that there was no need for things to grind to a halt, except so the rubberneckers could indulge their morbid curiosity.

Yes, other than the framing, it came out very nice for a very casual "what the heck" photo...
