  1. This is the beginning of an early morning flight from Klamath Falls, Oregon, KLMT, north to La Grand, Oregon, KLGD.  About a two hour flight.  La Grand is in a little valley that is very pretty in the summer time.  I had trouble finding the airport and messed up the approach so no pictures of the approach to KLGD.

    Eastern Oregon is much like this.  Not much out there compared to western Oregon.

    Touchdown at YBRN, Broome, Australia.  The end of a flight from Phuket, Thailand taking the Sabreliner 65 around the world.  From here to Cairns, Australia.  Then out across the Pacific.  The flight planner is P3d shows the flight from Phuket at 2110 miles so I loaded 5467 lbs. of fuel.  But the actual distance I think is more like 2700 miles which is at the limit in my enhanced range model so I had to do an inflight refueling.

  3. Here we are coming to the apron at Ponta Delgada airport, LPPD.  Its in the Atlantic, about 600 miles due west of Portugal.  This is after a 5 1/2 hour flight from Princess Juliana, TNCM, Martinique, mostly at FL 40.  Lots of thunderstorms along the way. I was surprised when the green night lighting came on.

    I think the illumination is pretty good.

    The stars are faintly visible.

    A bit quirky, but not a bad looking airplane.
