Death Valley, California. The lowest, driest, and hottest locations in North America. Took off from China Lake with this shining Saber, took it up to Angel 30 and took this pic. I wouldn't want to get stranded in this location... Wink

Beautiful shot! Just out of curiosity, what's Angel 30?

There goes my chances of winning this one. Undecided

You are really doing the f-86 justice Cool

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.

Thanks for the comments guys! Angel 30 means 30,000ft in fighter pilot lingo.

Actually, it's "angels," plural. As in "Where the angels live." Although I can think of other places with angels that have nothing to do with altitude. Wink

Very nice pic BTW.
