Ahhhh sixtiesrelic.... thank you for reminding me of the utter joy of skimmimg along just feet above the top of smooooth stratocu, best done into and out of Melbourne - (the city that should have been built on 4000' stilts).
Nothing's quite like breaking out of the Melbourne winter gloom into sparkling clear air and oh so BLUE skies - then clicking the AP out and holding her down just above the cloud until you almost reached red line. It wasn't just in the -9 you could play that game, but it's a memory I have from my -9 days.
