First flight with my new Dragon Rapide (freeware, thanks Jan for the link). Took off from Jefferson County, took a bathroom break by Diamond Point and finally stopped at my favorite water hole down by Anacortes airport. I call it the Orbx Tour  Grin Enjoy!

I love this first shot.
The Dragon rapide has never been part of my hangar, but I might change my mind soon...

Daube, you know I was thinking the same thing for a very long time. The shots that Jan has been posting lately of the Dragon Rapide have changed my mind and so far I'm pretty happy as it is a very photogenic plane  Wink
