Description
Some friends invited me to go flyin' on my last trip back to Texas. Well you don't have to ask me twice!
There are a number of "firsts" here. It's the first time I've posted a digital pic. (I was just using a pocket camera. Gotta learn to walk before I run.) It's also my first attempt at photos from the air.
Here's a view of final approach at the Brazoria County Airport from the copilot's seat.

Fantastic Image! I have only piloted an aircraft once and this has brought back wonderful memories (and nerves, even though I didn't pilot the landing! LOL!) 5++
Stevey, I know what you mean. It has been years since I had the yoke in my hands and my feet on rudder pedals. Fortunately my pilot Sally did all the tough stuff, but I had great time flying straight and level and making easy compass heading turns.
A wonderful ariel capture and a fantastic experience for you. Hugs. Diane. xx
I'm Jealous!!!! Best I've been able to do since the Back set of a Cessna 170 way back in the late 60's is Flight Sim.... (just not the same) An Excellent shot!!!!
Superb! Truly extra-ordinary. 5+.
Splendid photo and great depth & perspective......!!!!
great shot... all the while i'm looking at it i'm thinking.... need some right rudder.... are flaps set.... airspeed.... damn my brow is sweatin'.... it's really cool when a photo can do that to you! thanks.
Excellent composition!
not very often we get a birds eye view like this one!
Nicely done. Makes me want to go through my old flying photos.
did a perface landing on the shot. cool
You are lined up on final very well. Now if you can figure out the compass magnetic deviation for your position the 35 becomes 350 on the card and can be used in darkness and badweather. Don't look in a book just read it off that wobbling thing ahead of you.
Good shot again erland
@tallpindo: 353 degrees actually, and I do fly by that wobbly little thing. My pilot chided me at one point for paying too much attention to instruments! Old habits I suppose.
Sure takes me back, bud; saw a heck of an airshow down there in the late 1980s, with lots of sunshine and beer! Good one!!
Great work.
Wow, great view, excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a pleasant and inviting scene for anybody being airborne.
I love the small planes.I have went up 3 times and enjoyed immensely. excellent capture.I plan on going up again and maybe can find one set up for parachuting and I will be able to have a large door to shoot out of, and of couse a very strong strasp to hold me in
Superb capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
