What are you flying man? And where did you grab the 747 shot... That is amazing!

^ It was a pleasure, Adler. I'll give you a call when I'm back in town and have a day off. Keep me posted about Oshkosh; the pictures turned out well, you should post a few more. Thanks for the new avatar! What do I owe you? :laff:

Just some food for thought for you guys, that Stagger EZ goes Dallas, TX - Saginax, MI nonstop on 43 gal.

In Bogota, some airplanes impounded for drug trafficking... That Stationair II could be mine...

Why don't they turn around and sell the impounded aircraft and try to generate some revenue? It seems that would make a bit more sense then letting it rot away.

I figured it was very grassroots'ish

Well I do have one of your lawnmower

Panorama shot I took inflight earlier this morning using a cool new iPhone app:

It's a little off in places, but overall I thought it turned out okay. Couldn't get it to get the overhead panel in there, though.

Hey thanks for the tip on that app - tried it the other day in the King Air

Not that great, but I'm getting better. Will try again this week.

They do it now. There are several Navajo's, Turbo Centurions, Commander 690's that are operated by the police and that were seized during operations.
They also do it with cars. Actually, the airport cruiser is a... fat Lexus !

Haha, I'd like a ride in a 300 too....looks like a nice plane! I'm not keeping my hopes up on the $400k or whatever it is to get one though...The new 400 from Cessna is something like 730k. That's a lot.

Thanks. An 800xp. The 747 passed us somewhere across the north Atlantic.

This was taken yesterday at Newark, from 1500 feet. My first taste of dealing with the big airports and it was a blast.
