Shadow of a rotorblade on cloud east of Albury (Australia). Not keen on flying over fog filled valleys, tend to hug the ridges where I can.
Have convinced myself the engine makes a different noise over cloud, like the one it makes when I'm flying over water, which makes sense I guess since that what fog is.



A couple of comments on p#275 if I may?
1) I can't see how you can use the words 'Brantly' & 'beautiful' in the same sentence?
2) Re the backhoe & the pipeline. Many years ago spent some happy hours sitting next to the late great Laurie McKiver on gas pipeline work in his beautiful blue 206.
'Gas' had a megaphone installed under its belly so we could yell at Backhoe operators from 100', quicker than landing & the walk over to the tractor.
