Howdy All,

Couple of shots below shot during the past month or so around the Southeast USA.

Cedar Key sunsets never fail to impress...usually. :)

Bringing the plane down at Cedar Key for a mini-fly in, photo shot by my friend.

Never seen Cedar Key so busy before, there was not a parking space left!
Had to swoop around to the other side of tree and park in the grass.
The taxi driver lady in the caravan above was so busy heads down broadcasting on the CTAF about taxi rides
she forgot to look up to see the airplane in front of her.

Landing in Cedar Key, STOL kit does wonders on this plane. Getting in and out in
a shorter distance than the 172s and PA28s there was a great feeling. :beer:

Safe flying, and congrats to everyone on making it through judgement day yesterday!

Best deal for food around! After 9pm, I always get double the food for free, not sure if thats a typical thing, but two pizzas and four bags of crazy bread for $7'ish, its insane! Too bad there are none left here where I live now.

As for C5, I'm aiming for EWR since I live about 40 minutes driving time from there. When I was asked "will you be able to make a living on our payscale?", I should have shown them the Little Caesars photo above. :)

Ah, tell me about it. On approach when I loosened it, the would just not stay put! After a while, I just learned to ignore the wahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhahhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhwahhhh in situations like that :) Prop levers on that plane were a pain, I've never had anywhere close to that much of an issue in other twins.
 
That windshield is too clean and non-scratched.

I haven't be flying freight for that long...

Nice pics.
 
What camera settings were you using for the shot on final from the back seat? I can never get the runway and panel in the same shot

I set up the camera for a shot outside the cockpit, which leaves everything inside very underexposed, and then use the flash to brighten up the inside. Comes out like that. Still can't figure out how to do it with glass cockpits, though, all the displays come out very dark...hmm. Camera is just a point and shoot, usually on a automatic mode, so nothing fancy with the settings.
