Christmas Eve has arrived and we packed our bags as we set forth towards Glacier National Park to visit our relatives.


We left our cosy home in Minnesota as we departed towards Glacier
...

We climbed and gained speed slowly as we traveled at Mach .91, leaving large airliners in the mist.
...

Flaps down as we descend into the stormy weather of Glacier Park Int.
...

We touched down smoothly and began to taxi towards the parking baracks.
...

While taxiing we decided to park next to our fellow personal Jet, aka, the wannabe.
...

Beautiful and the Bland, Turtle and the Rabbit, the Citation and the Learjet, oh do I love the Citation.
...


After flying for 2.3 hours from Minnesota to Montana at mach .91, we landed and had a great time with our relatives that night after church!


Hope you enjoyed! Happy Holidays!

LoL, the framerates were pretty rediculous, going as low as 40 through the clouds, when at high altitude I was getting 95 and 104 in the 2d cockpit.

Thanks for the comments guys

Lovely porpoise shots, great clouds too...! They do hit the frames though, mine are in the low thousands with clouds.
