How dare you pollute the air with your GA plane... while everyone else burns that electricity to complain about it ;)
Not sure that nuclear plant water vapor quite translates to pollution . . . but I guess eventually the spent rods have to go somewhere!
 
To complete the set, there is another airport on San Juan Island, Roche Harbor (WA09) on the NW corner. Easy walk to the marina, restaurants, shops, rental cabins, a large public park, and lime kilns history lesson. A great place to spend a summer day. There is a $10 landing fee. Well worth it.

Pretty!
What were your details?
That was hoover dam, Grand canyon, and southern Utah. I'll do a write up when we get home and I can get pictures off the good camera. Friggin HOT out here.
 
I didn't say which portion of the post I liked....... ;)
 
These guys showed up at CMI for gas last week right before we left on our trip. Pilots were super cool; stood around talking, letting people take pictures in & on the planes, handing out stickers. Whole airport came out.

We left shortly before them, and watching on adsb, I was surprised that they stayed about 1500agl, as it was HOT that day. I was at 10.5 to beat the heat, but apparently they were more concerned with headwinds.

Last one includes an old jeep the fire/ rescue squad has. I think it's the first "crash truck" cmi had. I've never seen it move from its corner in the firehouse. I didn't know if it ran, but they fired it right up and brought it out for the photo opportunity.
