Played Russian over Death Valley this weekend.  I went from China Lake up into Nevada for maneuvers then back again.  Here is the result.

Climb out

At cruise

Diving back down, watch those EGTs  Wink

Thanks for looking!

Wow Cool 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"

Gorgeous shots!! Love the scenery and the aircraft, they mix very well. And you are right about to EGTs  Grin if you don't look at them you'll end up a crater in the ground  Wink
