The key

to what this shot is about is in the title and the 'addition' to the landscape. Roll Eyes

Thanks for looking.

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

Very clever Larry Wink

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzae_SqbmDE

"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"

Thanks Doug.

I thought it would take a little longer for someone to figure it out, but Chuck is sharp AND quick. Grin

If you mean the relation to the I Quit section of the music forum I figured it ouy right away too. Same with the picture.

By the way, it's not nice to make fun of people quitting.
And Larry, It's kind of hard to say that you're music isn't that bad and to tell you to get you're guitar back on key when the video in the I Quit section just leads you to just the home page of the site and not the video. I couldn't find your video.

The two threads are not related in any way. The bar of music in the screen shot posted here is of the first nine notes of Dueling Banjos from the movie Deliverance, which was filmed on the

Cahulawassee River. It was a 'teaser' to see who could figure out the movie reference.

The "I Quit" thread was a nod to how good the very young guitarist in the video was, much, much better than I. If the link was bad, the video has probably been taken down. And I was not really quitting,

I was just making a statement to the talent of the person in the video. I have not, and have no intention of ever making a video.

Nowhere near as purty as your State. I do a lot of my flying around Tongass Fjords.

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
