NOTE: I believe the photos don't show because the filenames had spaces. Can anyone help with that?


Change the filenames so they don't have spaces.

Smashing scenery.

The replica Stonehenge looks more impressive than the real one. LOL :D

Excellent Photos... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Thanks for posting!

It's always Photo's like these that make me get my Flight Sim up and running, get my Google Maps out, and explore the scenery in the area...(its always nice to know the local Airfield Codes).

(...now you know why I like my Trusty "Cessna 150", Doug!)... ;)... ;)...!

The video shows just how "twitchy" a small aircraft can be when (trying to) landing in a small area!.... ;)... ;D...!

Paul... 8-)...!

P.S. The Fire Tower....The last place in the World I want to be when the Mountain surrounding me catches fire!... :o... ;D...!

Eureka, Montana is just a few hours drive from where I am, and only a couple hours from where I learned to fly... ;)

There is also a full sized replica of Stonehenge somewhere in Washington overlooking the Columbia River

Those look great! I like the Stone Henge replica, I thought it was out of place until I read it.
