Very cool visitor into KABE this evening

[flyboy 28]

I went to KABE this evening to see what was going on. It was a bit warm today and I had already been to Somerset, Solberg and Sky Manor (those pics later) so I decided to round out the evening. I pulled up to 'Hangar Seven' which is the FBO for the airport. This beauty had already started up. A Piaggio P180.



By the time she took off though, it was too dark to get any good shots. I was happy though. It really is a sharp looking plane.

have you had your eyes checked lately this plane is about as sexy as my big toe with its overgrown toenail  8-)

Very nice, I've never actually seen one of those outside of AirVenture.  Good catch.

Nice shot, James!!

 I like it's design but, it sounds like a lawnmower!!

Before going to fly for Alpha, my father was offered the oppertunity to go fly those for a living. Unfortunately he didn't have enough twin time.

But I did get to sit in one, and in the cockpit. Its by far the nicest prop aircraft made.

Nice one James.

ugly aircraft though

Some people have a very strange idea of beauty.

The eye of the beholder, and all that... this eye beholds beauty. Nice photo, too-not perfect, but that sky!
