Got a chance to experience some old school flying yesterday morning.
Better than a weekend round of golf. 8)

My ride yesterday


Beautiful from all angles


One concession to the modern era in this office.


Old school ASI on the strut. Accurate as well.


Thundering through the skys at 65 mph

Grand old lady admired.

Office view


Heading out


What a view, what a high!


Finals


Flights over


Passing another timeless classic.


Lockheed Lodestar hiding away in the back.

And finally, a question....aircraft parked in front of the Lodestar.... what the hell is it ???
Cropped the pic....(lossless zoom of the Nokia 808 Pureview is a life saver)
 
That's "bad" man......

I got to ride in a JN-4 Jenny years ago. Indicated speed in mph, T/O-65, battle speed 65, landing 65! It was brilliant.
 
Very nice to see, aeroplane is de Havilland D.H.104 Dove ZS-BCC formerly of South African Airways. Google is your friend (and is spying on you).
