... Orcas Island was about 6 years ago. My wife and i flew up their and camped on the airport next to the airplane. The town is only a walk away and we would go there eat at the resturaunts, visit the shops. It is a lot of fun. Perhaps I will load pictures of that trip some day. Grin

Today I have for you a trip to Orcas Island in a beautiful North American B-25 Mitchell, made by.... the one and only MAAM. Fictionally, the B-25 was on display at the Olympia Air Museum (the museum is real) and then was going to go to Orcas Island for a visit. Here are the shots. Grin

Firing up the engines... Pull the Chocks. Grin

Gear up...

Seattle in the far background. The Cascades are cloudy as usual. Grin

Fly by over the harbor... Just to say to everyone, come to the airport so we can charge you money to take a tour of this beautiful aircraft, and we will give you a free shirt. Grin

Parked infront of the hanger. There are a couple of guys working here, there names are Daryl and a his other brother Daryl. Grin

Someone came to take a look at the warbird and snapped this shot... Grin

The scenery is a Georender.... Excellent work. Grin

Wow, beautiful shots! Very realistic, and the scenery is just awesome. That second to last pic, is just REALLY good. And that third to last pic, you seem like you were low, eh? But anyways, wonderful shots.
