Had one of those "special days" flying today. A bit bumpy below 3000ft, but the secenery still takes some beating. Thought I'd share it with you. Click on the link:

Bexil,
Ahhh yes. I've got a few picture like that from the last lot we had at the end of January. First time I'd flown from a snow covered airfield. Quite amusing trying to do the power checks when the airplane was trying to slide off the apron !

Those shots have a distinct Jodel look to them
Do tell - What is it you're in?

SGC,
I think it's an optical illusion - tapered, not cranked. Could even be a PA28!

Correct... Tapered, not cranked... and yes a PA28 (although I do aviate in a Jodel derivative as well, when it's servicable:ok: 0
