Oh wow, very flattered thank you
Evening at KDED tonight. Photo doesn't do it justice, you could just see the clouds flattening, coming down in layers and folding

Snapped this one today at the home field
Blackhawk, Blackhawk and Tomahawk
Shoulda tried to get a Skyhawk in there too.
Is that the neighbors Funk in the background?
I saw it flying Wednesday night around 8, wasn't sure who was at the controls. Wonder if Tammy's card goes with the plane!
Yes sir!That could be one over the runway...looks like a refueling probe on the front of the 60's. Air Force pave hawks. I worked them at moody. I was the first troop to install the new aux fuel tanks (read blue prints, drilled holes, etc.). I was nervous.
Yes sir!
It is Skyhawk, Blackhawk, Blackhawk and Tomahawk!

I did a sunset flight out to Fishers Island 0B8 with a friend yesterday. I HIGHLY recommend it! Just walk across the airport (look left, right, then left again...depending on the winds) and you're at the beach. It's pretty amazing.
Next time you go let me know and I'll join you. I fly out of WST.
You know, I really have no idea how that works. I'm pretty sure if you taxi over to Dooney's on the south side of the field you don't get charged...? I'll have to ask next time I see the airport manager.We were considering dropping into WST just to say we hit RI, but we decided to stay on the beach a little longer instead . What's the deal on the landing fee there? It says it's charged to non-RI registered airplanes. How do they collect?
That is awesome!Somewhere over West Virginia, two weeks ago. I don't normally get above the clouds but that day the clouds were on the ground. The smokestacks coming out the fog was sort of surreal and in the second picture the clouds reminded me of a pair of swans.
In the project, funded by the Federal Aviation Administration and sponsored by the MITRE Corporation, instrument-rated pilots from central Florida will conduct approaches and landings using a Level 6 Cessna flight simulator that can replicate low-visibility conditions.
[...]
The purpose of the research is to see if precision approaches normally used to land on longer runways can be used for landing at the shorter and narrower runways found at small airports.In the study, pilots of small planes will simulate GPS-guided approaches down to the minimum altitude they can fly to in poor visibility and land using various simulated runway and lighting conditions.The project will help researchers evaluate different runway and lighting conditions at smaller airports and assess the feasibility of letting the GPS instruments guide small planes to lower altitudes in conditions of poor visibility.
Nice picture of a Schewizer 1-26B! Ser no 052.
