eclipse at the hangar.


My wife and I flew right before and it was too bumpy for her. I wanted to get a glimpse of the packed highway and park which we did. There was a lot of people who didn’t make it to their preferred viewing spot. Traffic has been terrible today. We found refuge at the airport and and a great place to view it.


It doesn’t look dark in this picture but the hangar lights came on as did the airport beacon.

Totality in Cleveland, OH

Here in Carolina we only got a partial eclispe. Here's the best I could do with an iPhone and some cheap viewing glasses. It actually looked much clearer in person:

Getting approved for a short cut through the Chicago bravo from KGYY -> KDPA is rare, but always welcomed. Shaves about 10 mins off the trip and gives a nice view of KMDW

You can always take the Eisenhower Transition @ 1700 MSL.

I got to fly right over the top of ORD last week, but the clouds were so thick I couldn't see my own wingtips.

do y'all seriously not know how to use a browser that blocks ads?

I originally mistyped that as 'ass', but why would you want to block that?

You flew right over me and didn't wave?

I waved the whole time... you certainly didn't wave back!

Was that the same day or Tuesday?

Really crappy to land in winds.

The tach reading for passing hour 700 in my logbook.

Might be my worst headwind ever. And then I got a flat tire to rub salt in the wound.

 

[ahmad]

I was doing steep spirals while this guy was landing. So cool.

Hey! That's my old stomping grounds in the Santa Cruz mountains. I cruized every road in the vicinity of Lexington Reservoir (shown).

 

[SFDukie]

@IK04 we’re fortunate to have so much open space in the Bay Area. I’ve run the ridge line from Pt Reyes NS to highway 17- in segments, of course- with the only gap being the the SF watershed closed to foot traffic.
You’re a mtn biker?

Oh yeah, I practically lived in the coastal mountains and rode the whole length of Skyline, usually climbing Highway 9 from Saratoga and spent lots of time on the South side by Guadalupe Reservoir. On the other side of the bay, I rode up to the Lick observatory on Mount Hamilton. By the time I started flying out of RHV, I knew my way around most of the South Valley.

Wow, beautiful snowy mountains. I always forget that most of the country is still cold this time of year.

I'm getting tired of airplanes. That part is 14 months old.

 

[ArrowFlyer86]

CAVU at takeoff, CAVU at landing, but flying 7500 over the top of a fluffy overcast layer in Indiana over to Michigan. Then back home tomorrow to pack and end the day in Rough River!

There is nothing "beautiful" in anything that contains the the word "snow" or any variation of it! LOL

Another one of my favorite go to places is Pagliai's Pizza in Princeton Ky.

Beautiful short flight yesterday. Landed back at Hopkinsville just before the storms came through.
