The Private Flying Photo Album.......
 
Time to jump on the bandwagon now.

If you have a picture of your aeroplane or yourself or even pictures taken whilst flying around, anything really, then post the picture/s here.

To do that CLICK HERE and follow the instructions. Obviously do not send your pictures to the guys named in that thread, you can send any to me and I will host them for you.

Here are a few of mine. This first one is a PA-38, took us to the Sandown fly-in last year with ppruner Cloud69........

Another taken during some brilliant aeros with Paulo.........

Upside down..

I have millions more, let us see yours, approaches to airfields, in-flight, nice sunsets, sunrise, self-portraits etc, anything really, share them with us here please. :)

I know I posted this on another thread - but I love it - is it okay to go here as well? 3,500 feet near Milton Keynes last Sunday:

And finally, approach to the old 04 (now 03) at Cranfield, with a very dirty windshield!

BRL I hate to have to break this to you but that was in 2004!!!! Time flies dunnit!!!

And you only have a couple of weeks to take me up on my night flying offer :confused:

Will post (or send to BRL) some piccies Wednesday cos I am just off to the Land Of Nod and tomorrow is manic.

Great plan, BRL, a bit like "Rotorheads around the World" Photo Gallery.
Might I please reconfirm Heliport's recommendation:
"Size is important! Picture width should not exceed 850 pixels MAXIMUM."
(I would suggest less than that)
Please edit pictures to no more than 72 dpi, since the majority of computer screens only have 72 dots per inch, so anything more is a waste of download time.

Here's me being a hooligan a year or two back:

..and in a different coloured aircraft on a certain beach that Pitts2112 and some others might recognise:

Of course, landing and parking on the lawn of a Stately Home is a must!

Hey Dub Trub

Where was the stately home - quite fancy a go at that - but I'm guessing I may be pushing it with a C172?

DW.

DubTrub 24th Jan 2006 14:33

dwshimoda It was a private residence near Newbury, but the then occupants have since emigrated. I had to watch for the Ha Ha, though!

It wouldn't have suited a 172 (perhaps a Reims Rocket might have been OK)

Wow, the mountain picture is sensational! Is that for real, untouched?

Mono, your pictures show up loud and clear here.

Leezyjet 24th Jan 2006 22:34

Yep sure is. It was about an hour after sunrise so the haze hadn't yet burnt off in the valleys, also the colour of the scrub/bush was a mixture of violet and green. We were up at fl65 at the time.

Pics were taken by a fellow PPruner (although I cannot remember his PPrune user name :O )
