Went Flying Today..pics
 

Spent about 90 minutes flying around southern Wisconsin taking pics of the flood we have here. This is a small town about 30 miles east of Madison.

holy crap! do you fly your own plane?

keep blowing CO2 into the air guys but don´t complain afterwards...

wow, that is just a bad deal

Better look down, its possible that Al Gore's wrist is sticking out of your ass. :Oh crap

already sniffed your pickup´s exhaust fumes today huh?

nice but its also messed up

Mmm co2 I dont need to sniff it. It comes out of me when I breathe. So if you REALLY want to help the planet please stop breathing..

together with some semen from last night´s date? :winkwink:

MMm semen! Dixie says it does wonderful things for her skin. :thumbsup

yeah i´ve heard that already. don´t know, never tried. :)
but let´s stop this flamin´ around shit and get back to the thread originally started. :thumbsup
Peace! :smokin

that is so crazy looking

Only on near-perfect weather days. I really hate crosswind landings.

white on black gallardo *droooooool*

minte .. bring back the where in the world threads from simulator :)

nice photo work from a smooth 2000 ft?

those are wild pics minte, thx for posting them eh.

i hope your residence and family are not in the flooded areas.

It was perfect flying weather today. no wind and unlimited ceiling. Plane nearly flew itself.
Pretty close on the alt..was around 2200 most of the time.

What make and model plane is it? I accumulated quite a few hours back when I was 15 to 17. (think they only counted after I was 16? I forget too long ago) My best friends dad was a certified instructor and got me all setup. He had a Cessna (forget the model) and a LongEz. They moved away before I even got close to getting my license or anything. Sigh I miss flying. Its on my list of things to do before I turn 45. Buy a plane and get my flying license. I have 10 years I think I can do it. :)

No worries. Its all in fun. :thumbsup

looked about that alt :) nice to see some good flying

Wow..that is devastating..mother nature is relentless

looks like fun :thumbsup

It's Called Population Control

OMG, thats terrible, it seems almost everything is covered by water...

Damn.. some crazy pics

Why do people build homes in a lake?

to attract tourists

whoa that looks fucked up :\

Ryan.. You are very quickly becoming the next baddog... STFU.. PLEASE!

Like the gif:thumbsup

water into houses? shit, thats fucked up.

I hope the recovery effort goes smoothly!!

Know what you mean did quite a few hours flying in western Oz miss it lots and its on my to do list to finish and get my ppl.

did you get to fly the longEz ? thats one funky looking plane burt Rutan makes the coolest aircraft !:thumbsup

Nice pics...but is sad too see all that flood...

goodness! that's devastating incident! flood ruin a lot of properties fo sho! :disgust

Hope no one hurts.

Yes got to fly it several times, and it was.. well VERY COOL. As far forward as you sit all you can see is those small from "wings" Was quite more capable vs the Cessna. I never pushed it very hard since his dad would of prob killed me, but he did push it a bit. Was scary and fun at the same time.

For those that have never seen one. HOT linkage

I've never flown one of those but I have flown a Lancair 200,bubble top and it was brutal on a sunny day. Those clear roofs are only practical at night or a real low ceiling day.

That's crazy, I didnt realize it was that bad.

I was flying in overcast and cloudy PA weather, but ya sunglasses are not optional. :winkwink: My grandfather and Uncle both had their pilots licenses, but neither kept up with them. Grandfather died back in 2000. He was so into planes. This thread is stirring up a lot of memories. :(

Wow it's pretty but sad too.

Damn, is it bad over there in Cheeseland? I'm from La Crosse area, and really haven't heard much about floods over there, but here in Iowa, its bad. Bush was in Cedar Rapids surveying the floods yesterday.

FEMA has been here all week. They have listed most of the southern half of the state a disastor area. The big dollar losses are going to show up when all the farmers are able to determine their crop losses. Madison really lucked out. The lakes are all high but there aren't any rivers that run through town.

wow thats really messed up =(
Aint it scary though flying yourself??

Damn, Cedar Rapids had some parts of the city with water all the way up to second story windows, thats crazy shit.

No, not at all. Flying is a lot of fun.
Landing in high winds or coming in on final approach and seeing a deer or some geese on the runway will get a persons attention! But it's never scary.

water looks nice and calm for some wakeboarding

horrible fucking disaster

I did spot a couple of guys on jetskis

I am pretty sure that the water isn't supposed to be that high.

You really should let some out.

There's a thought:thumbsup
