Third one's awesome Cool

"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! That one is my favorite too! It had also been the most difficult to get. I had seen it from the beginning and liked the way the aircraft looked but I wanted it overland, so I set the autopilot and took me there. While I was waiting in spot view for the shot to reappear over land, I didn't see the mountains right in my path. Boom. Had to takeoff again. Autopilot messed up. Successfully got a shot of it over land, but decided it made the picture look worse. Restarted the flight for a third time to do it over water. Autopilot messed up big time again. Finally fixed the autopilot and got the shot.

So which part? Grin

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.
