Going up there tomorrow with my Dad.  Hope to get some nice static shots or flying ones in the morning when we are there.  Are they at AVATEL again?

Nice shots time.

Nevermind its at Syncro.  They always have such nice birds in the hanger but are off limits......  I asked last time thats why.  I think that Howard 500 thats in Air Classics was there last time.

Thanks!  There's a limit as to how far north you can walk on the ramp when taking statics.

There was no clear line, but a general idea so you might ask to be clear where it is.  ;)

This time the hanger was closed so...... It was fun and my dad enjoyed it.  We also got some arrival shots over by the sod farm.

Hey, Now do I see a satalite navagation system between the forward windscreens?   ???  Bet the guys flying into Germany in WWII would have killed for that and some of the other modern day navagation and systems monitering equipment we have now.
