This is our first flight after the time has changed, and with

more light in the evenings, this equates to a longer flying day.

Now if we could just get those Avgas prices to lower a bit, more

in line with car gas prices, it wouldn't be so painful after the flight.

Regardless, fuel was burnt today and as usual, the rewards

were great with clear skies and endless views. I hope you

enjoy today's selection of (39) aerial photos:
