AS I am a very old dog, new tricks like this are showing up my lack of keyboard agility, but I will try again

This is Vfr, taken by pax(son) over the coastal area of Lancashire abeam Inskip Radio towers, in 2003 flying R22.



Can anyone name this view.

Shallow approach

Thanks John (Eacott),

You are right, I was thinking that you were making some amazingly cool approach to the top of the building.

Keep up the great photos everyone.

John

A few from Baja California . . . .

I took all these during a recent flight to Baja California.


Believe it or not what you see in the picture is a runway operated by a KingAir and a Citation Jet, the runway slope is about 15 degrees! (this is only picture that is not from Baja California but it was on the way.


Sonoran Desert


Isla Tiburon (Sharks Island), you can see tons of huge grey whales in front of this island as they come here every year to play and give birth.


Part of the Sea of Cortez


Aproaching San Felipe International Airport!


San Felipe, you have to have a Lobster here!


The movie Titanic was filmed here right next to the fisherman's village.


Refuelling stop surprise, an bite from one of these WILL ruin your day, and probably your life.

Hueys need to be 'flown' around the wingover, as Silberfuchs says you need to keep the 'g' on to...our new composite blades have made it a more 'pleasant' experience..if you can call it that?

This is a picture of the Starchaser Suger powered Rocket that was last tested at Morcambe bay, I acted as ground crew to Robert(Bob) Hodgeson who was acting as chase/recovery pilot, Starchaser was supposed to and only cleared to go to about 9Kft it actually went to 19 Kft, that supprised quiet a few people that day

This is in hours building days R22HP over the Ribble Valley with a well brogued foot in view
