its all good Duy, we learn from our mistakes..

[NikonGuy]

Hey Duy, they are still good shots.   

[Dragonskiss]

Thanks bud!    

Tomorrow is a big day...what time shall I meet you?  I wanted to get out there pretty early so I can grab a good breakfast (sound familiar?  ) and check out the area.  

[NikonGuy]

Up to you Duy, I really dont care because I live a couple of blocks away from SMO.    Im up for whatever time   

[Dragonskiss]

Hah, I'll hold you to that!    Let's say 9am or so?  Where should I meet you?  I'm not familiar with the airport perimeter. 

[NikonGuy]

If you are coming from LAX, take the 405 North to the 10 West, exit on Bundy Dr South. Stay on Bundy Dr, make a right on Airport Ave, then another right on Donald Douglas Loop S, you will see the Administration building and there is a flag pole right infront of it... just park anywhere. Take the elevator to the 3rd floor (Observation Deck) and I will be right there.  

Hope these are good directions...  

[Dragonskiss]

Hey there's a Dewey Street next to the airport!  What a trip!
Yeah, those directions are just fine, see you there!  Is the Typhoon restaurant by the observation deck?

[NikonGuy]

Yep is right below on the 2nd floor.   

Cool, ill be there at 9am.

One of HTS' 214ST's last night, at VNY. The "Big Mutha" evolution of the Huey family.

Nice, I think this is the first photo of a Bell 214 on APSOCAL.   

[Nikdol]

It is the first one that I have seen "in the flesh", so to speak....

On Monday, when I was heading for Soledad Canyon, I found this guy working at Vincent Hill on a power line project. Kinda scary to take your hand off the collective at that point!

You don't see TwinStars everyday...this all-white one has been flying sorties from the National Test Pilot School at Mojave the last few days.
