I'm not sure if there are any Gator Fans here on JC, if your out there, here's a shot for you.

St.Augustine Inlet, with a few rain showers in the distance

St.Augustine Airport in all its glory

Great shots! #1 is my fav... Brings back lots of memories (between ERAU and flight instructing out of LAL I had my share of those views)

Took off from there with a 25-30 kt x wind, not fun.

I would love to fly back there. Awesome cruising around hunting for a few beers on the golf cart at 1 am.

Nice pictures. I've been there once, and left one of them really, really long skid marks. Still can't figure out what happened, but I think it was the right seat passenger/pilot who had his feet on the pedals on landing. Not the greatest place to get a flat-spotted tire.

Always liked the massive amount of swamp land just east of SGJ there

The people at the St. Aug tower were always super nice though. And there is a decent little restaurant up there.

Cool shots~!

Nice shots landing at Cedar Key. Looks like you didn't have any headwind to help you out on the long well maintained runway there.:joke:
*Edit: Go Gators!

Well aren't you just amazing?

I once put out a lawn chair right along the water where the windsock is and sat there for a few hours with my cooler. Good times.

Would be nice - everyone could bring a cooler - someone bring a grill (not sure how to get it in the airplane). Could have cookout right there at the airport.

Great idea guys, would definitely not mind flying out there again.

Thanks for all the comments guys.
