More GA adventures in New Jersey.

Postby flyboy 28 » Mon Sep 01, 2008 11:10 am

It seems that the three NJ reps for SimV have been out at all of our respective home airports for the weekend taking some wonderful shots. Too bad we couldn't arrange a meet up; the weather was beautiful.

Anyhoo, I swung by Sky Manor yesterday after work to see what was going on. There was quite a bit of activity, though the wind was favoring runway 7 so almost all the takeoff shots are back-lit. Here's some highlights.

The sight of this resulted in a hearty "what the f*ck?" from me. :-?

I was getting a soda when this 337 taxied past. I ran to nab it. :P

The nicest Tri-Pacer I have ever seen.

Washing bugs off I'm assuming?

New one on me.

Next - airborne balloon-chasing!

Nice one James. Glad you're getting some decent weather. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I can only assume you haven't seen too many Tri-Pacers. :P

New one on me.

Looks like a Kitfox. Pretty little things. I see quite a few at Popham.

PS. What's all this about the Navy? It's not too late to change your mind. :o ;)

Thanks Doug. No, I've only noted two different registrations of Pacers/Tri-Pacers/Colts in my years of hanging around airports. And I was flying in one of 'em. :P

That's what everyone's been telling me... ::) :P

very nice shots :)

I'll have to dig up the photos of the pacer/tri-pacer combination that was at the beach city fly-in this year. they were both painted in the same colors and side by side they looked like they were showroom condition :) Very nice
