Pictures from work in the Texas snow!!!

[esa17]

The snow today motivated me to take out my camera and even get a little crazy with Lightroom. Everything is taken where I work either outside on the runway or in the hangar.

Our OH-58 we operate for the local police and sheriffs departments.

It was really coming down but not sticking:

A big and little kids playground!

Our Piper Clipper...With a 150hp. She will be on floats come spring.

And finally the only way I've made it this long in the cold:

Glad it didn't make it all the way down south to Houston.... I had my fill of snow in December! Still cold enough here plus the rain is pretty miserable....

Great pics though & enjoyed some of your smugmug galleries... esp. the Sun'n'Fun ones

We wear shorts when it hits 25F up here.

They sell a brand called "Walls" which is almost as good for a LOT less. Actually that's who made my coveralls and I fricken love them!

She is very "sturdy" but falls into the old saying: Good from far but far from good!

I did my initial multi in her years ago but our most recent annual on her cost the owner $13k because he refused to take care of her.

In only 6 months of mx work, I have developed a deep-seated hatred for that kind of aircraft owner.
