I quickly rolled all the windows down to hear the sound.

But I don't bring the whole bag with me when I fly the taildraggers, and I didn't know if Gina's dad wanted to use it, and I wasn't totally keen on having it in my lap with the door wide open next to me, and... and... yeah I know there's no excuse. Shoulda brought it and should have pictures just in case a moment like this pops up.<br /><br />(hanging head in defeat)<br /><br />Definitely was a great flight though, one of those moments you completely relish. I'll pass along the photo-taking compliment to Gina, she definitely does take some good ones!Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11130510691724323456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417693701650847558.post-41975809264045383152009-08-11T19:39:55.672-04:002009-08-11T19:39:55.672-04:00What a great flight!

Where are the pictures? You work for Kodak, man, can't you scrounge an old digital from the dumpster and keep it in your flight bag? Or just take Gina everywhere...she takes good pictures :)Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10046354515410342573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417693701650847558.post-70575312926191924942009-08-10T14:51:40.897-04:002009-08-10T14:51:40.897-04:00Sounds really nice, like living a bit of history!Sounds really nice, like living a bit of history!MJMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001582638981237828noreply@blogger.com
