Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia. Default Scenery.

Taking off. Time for a nice sightseeing trip around the lake at sunset.

Flying along. Lake sure does look beautifull.

Look at that amazing sunset!

I feel like dipping the wing in the water on the next turn. Cheesy

Well that didn't work. When did that giant water hazard get there?!?!? Cheesy

Wow. Can't believe I didn't crash from that. Shocked

I must of been thrown around about 200 feet in the air and about a quarter of a mile from that impact! Shocked

I can't believe there was no damage! Shocked

I had been getting tossed around like a washcloth in a washing machine. Man... Talk about major whiplash though, and I completely missed the that turn. Sad

Time to get back on course.

Oh man! There apparently was damage! the water slammed a hole right in my fuel tank! I'm on empty! Shocked

Atleast Smith Mountain lake airport is right there. I think I can make it there. I hope. Undecided

Well, I just barely made it to the runway. with no room to spare. Undecided

Time to call my friend to come pick me up and take me back home, 'cause it doesn't look like I'll be able to fix this hunk o' junk any time soon. Sad

Let me know how I did. Wink

Again, nice shots.

But as in your Seattle thread, you are way over limit.

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

As for the screenshot part Smiley

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.
