VH-KDK Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Especially when I am flying. The Mitchell is all ready to go for a flight along the Strait of Georgia. Previously 1. All is well as the Twin Cyclones fire up. Even the weather is good here for a change. 2. The Mitchell must be a common sight here as not even a glance from the crowd! 3. Going Halibut or Salmon fishing would be the next best thing to a flight in the Mitchell, unless you realise that I am the pilot. 4. A glance down the airfield before take off. 5. Over Mt Baker road at Eastsound. 6. Heading North leaving East Sound and Rosario Hill behind. 7. The southern end of the Strait of Georgia with Waldron Island below the Mitchell. 8. One of the many ships seen on the flight. I have never done a cruise and I don't think I ever will. 9. In the distance is the Seymour Range. 10. Looking down Galiano Island and on the right is Thetis/Kupar Island. I hope you liked the views from my flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teecee Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I can't fly with Rock roaring in my ears, but I can and do fly with classical pieces, or my favorite guitar player, Micheal Marc soothing me in the background. Terry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
