Some shots from several flights in the great state of Alaska

A rainy fly fishing expedition in Southeast AK.....

A heli tour over Baird glacier near Devil's Thumb.....

Searchin' for a missing vessel in the Aleutian Islands.....

Takin' some commercial fishermen home from Dutch Harbor.....

Thanks 4 looking

"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"

All amazing shots! That C130 float plane cracks me up, and the shot of Dutch is my favorite. For the last one, did you use the pre-made weather settings that came with the scenery, or did you set it yourself?

@Pierre......I'm pretty sure that I was using a preset Wink

I can't decide which one I prefer between the VC shot and the last one.
The VC shot is just my kind of flying, but the last one has some special atmosphere inside...

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?
