This is one very nice Cherokee 140.

I’d like it again if I could

As usual, Jack takes a completely pedestrian plane and makes it look like a superstar.

I hope you charged extra for those golden hour photos

Lol, it’s such an amazing time to be in the air… should give them a discount!

1. Absolutely amazing pictures!

2. Clearly AI, since no real Piper Cherokee has a belly that clean!

3. Your thread title makes me thing there has been a mid-air accident every single time. My brain just parses it that way, and then I'm relieved that it's just a post of wonderful photographs!

1. Thank you!
2. You’re giving me credit for understanding AI and/or being willing to learn new things!
3. My license plate will push you over the edge!

Hey now!

One of the best airplanes ever produced right there!

You'll get no argument here. Beats the hell out of a skyhawk

Spectacular! I soloed in a Cherokee 140 - oh, about 59 years ago.

I would love to see my Ercoupe showing off like that.

I agree. What shutter speed did you use for that? My math says 1/60s to 1/80s to get a full disc for the prop, that's an insanely steady shot to accomplish airborne with a 200mm-ish lens.

Same here. My heart skips a bit and then I calm down

I usually start with 1/80 and drop to 1/60 if needed. 70-200mm lens and handheld, so I guess I do have steady hands. It can get challenging on a bumpy day!
