Only 94 miles as the crow flies.....or Goose in this case Wink

Haulin' some volatile cargo......(people Tongue

)
Shortly after take off.....tryin' to beat the weather.....people are always in a hurry.....

....ready or not, here it comes....

.....rats!...socked in.....

Descending through a solid layer of low clouds is just unsettling to me......

....alright, nothin' down here but the ocean....and rain...

...Cape Pole, Ak.....everybody out!!.....oh, I suppose now you want me to land first!!!
Cargo never complains Grin

Thanks 4 looking

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Great set Chuck.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
