Took the Brother in law out for a birthday sightseeing tour today over the rocks. I love burning Avgas when the scenery is this nice.

Think I’ll make this a sticky, post your flying “wingview” picture.

Here are a few from a trip to the Caribbean in 2017. Some people couldn't believe I made it from BC to Florida VFR without an autopilot.....

It’s funny the views we take for granted are “once in a lifetime” for others. I think since buying the Skymaster and taking friends and family up and witnessed their awe and joy of experiencing flight has really brought me back to my aviation roots.

Love the pictures keep them coming

Is that a Duchess or Seminole ?

It is a Duchess. Some nice folks from Didsbury that we met on the trip. Pre-briefed it prior to leaving Puerto Rico. Essentially he would go on autopilot so he wouldn’t surprise me and then I would form up on him. Then I passed him. Did I tell you I love the RV? As he told me about the Duchess - twice the horsepower and half the speed!
