So how many of you out there fly planes? I doubt there's many but I figured I'd share some quick shots I took while I was up today. Weather was beautiful !! Pics were taken all in about a 40 mile radius. Next time I go up i'll take more and better quality shots.
Enjoy!

Yes, the door was open while in flight, lol.
The plane is a 1945 Piper Cub.

yea at first it's like wow where the hell am I? But it's just something you get used to.

thats awesome man, always wanted to get my liscence, lessons are expensive arent they?

it can get pretty pricey. around here it's upwards to $150 an hour to rent a plane +the instructor fee

so thats how its gonna look like when i jump out of a plane on my bday.....oy haha.

I've been wanting to do that, my friend just did it for his 24th bday. Once he showed me the video, I wanted to do it even more!

Damn pretty cool, so were you actually flying or riding shotty?

I'd be a little nervous trusting my life w/a 63yr old plane but it looks well maintained from what we can see.

Thanks guys

LowNotSlow.... awesome pics right there!! Looks like you have a lot better scenery where you fly. I've never flown in the mountains. I'll try to get some pics up from over the city.

^^ that is unbelievable...I hope I can do that someday, world looks so much better from the air

Yes, it does. and it's so peaceful.

Damn pretty cool, so were you actually flying or riding shotty?

I was with a friend. We took turns flying. It's an old plane for sure, but well maintained and rebuilt in '96

this is awesome...when i was younger my dad used to fly cessna's...he was in training for his license. but he never got it. my uncle out in PA though has his and when i go out there we go flying all the time...its absolutley amazing

Yea it's definately worth getting. Not only is it fun, but for me it helps tremendously with the profession I'm going into, which happens to be air traffic control. It brings everything together and gives me experience from both sides


But anyways, I'll try to get some more pics up. It's hard to find time to fly between school, work, bad weather, etc.

Yeah mountains are great until it's a windy day and you're getting knocked all the damned place...
