Having a flight around some of the mountains on Catalina Island.

On the wrong side of the fence looking through the barbely wire.

Up and away in the usual uncontrolled fashion. No sign of the C-47 I put off the end of the runway last night:o

Better keep clear of the tall palms.

Now under control and admiring just how good the airport scenery is.

No items left off the hangar roof.

Absolutely first class scenery, and I have only covered a small part of the island.

 

Many thanks to Ken and Tim for this beautiful piece of work.:)

You have my permission to have the rest of the week off until you start your next project, that is if you have not already.:huh:

Orbx seems to be a very tidy provider, I never find any of my wrecks in PNG again.

Love your shots...this is a "must-buy"!
