Horse Feathers 500


VH-KDK

Recommended Posts

53VA to be exact.

I was about to do a flight from Horovice but the elevation was all up the creek so when I went to choose a new departure point Horse Feathers looked interesting!

I chose a green TM for Stewart and also for anyone else out there that had green as a favourite colour.

Nothing to see at the grass strip so here we are shortly after take off.

Close to Sperryville and Mary's Rock is one of the peaks in the Shenandoah NP.

Looking back from the same location with Route 211  prominent.

 

4.hf4.jpg

Crossing the Blue Ridge Mountains at Thornton Gap. Anybody else thinking of the wonderful double of Laurel and Hardy?


5.hf5.jpg

Neighbor Mountain is in the distance.

6.hf6.jpg

The town of Luray with Stony Man on the left horizon.


7.hf7.jpg

The George Washington National Forest in the Appalachian Mountains.


8.hf8.jpg

W45 Luray Caverns Airport and the Shenandoah River.


9.hf9.jpg

New Market Gap in Massanutten Mountain


10.hf10.jpg

Coming in to 8W2, New Market. New Market was the site of a battle in May 1864.

The North Fork of the Shenandoah River.

Safely down and the end of another flight.

 

Hope you enjoyed the flight and the magnificent OLC NA scenery.

 

According to the OZx image hosting site this is my 500th album. So there!:lol:

Great shots Martyn! :). I enjoyed your narrative. 

The green TM looks very realistic over the scenery. 

Well done on reaching 500 albums at OZx.

Thanks for your wonderful comments Paul.

Just happened to look last night my albums on OZx and saw 499!:o

I don't know about you Martyn, but I am sometimes tempted to look back through my shots and pick a selection of favourites?

A great idea Paul, especially going way back over the years to see just how things have progressed.

The 500 are just the ones on OZx image hosting since it was revamped, I have saved albums of flights since I first started posting years ago!:o

Nice flight over the newer parts of the Czech republic, Martyn. I see you move away from high-tech airliners more and more, currently... :D

I only fly the low tech versions of the high tech airliners:wacko: but as far as the Czech Republic goes I am as lost as you are.:unsure:
