Thought I would wake up some gamblers who had spent the night sitting in front of the "One Arm Bandits" (as my grandpa used to call slot machines)  Grin Grin


Got the strip in my sights...
...

Lighting it up...
...

Trying to wash the under carriage in the fountain...
...

Secong pass by the fountain...
...

Picked some serious speed on this pass...
...

...

Managed to get her down safely and the run like h*ll to avoid the angry gamblers...

Entertaining shots from the City of Sin. Check your floormats for any "lost change"!!   Grin

At first I was wondering what the "smoke spots" were in pics 3 4 & 5, then I realized that it was the shoots of water from the fountain from The Belagio!

Good eye! Hee hee...you will notice that my speed is also 260 kts!
I had never tried landing this plane before and it kept stalling on me and I was losing it so I had to hit the throttle at the last second to keep from putting the landing gear through the wings!  Grin

I've been there....even landed at night, but the best time I had was on New Years Eve and flew past just after mid-night......there are tons of fireworks going off near the tower which is just up the roadway from where you landed..... 8)

Nice shots Cherokee, good to see you giving everyone a wake-up call. Did they confiscate your licence on landing?
