That was lots of fun to see, Walt--especially that last one. I hope when I
retire I can fly the skies like you do ;-)--and give a big salute to all
our retired military pilots. Cheers, Christine

Subject: GESO: Ocala Breakfast Flight
http://walthamler.smugmug.com/gallery/7376009_CJKyg#474966499_d8NCY
A week or so ago eight of us who call ourselves the "Aviation Group"
at our church made a fun flight to Ocala for breakfast. We took two
planes and swapped people on the return flight so we all (except the
two pilots) got the chance to experience each type aircraft.
I was in the Columbia 400 going and the 172 for the return flight. We
tried some air to air shots of the Columbia but the poor little 172
was bouncing up and down so much that John was a little leary of
coming in real close, so nice closeups were not possible!
The opening shot and a few others in the cockpit were with the 10~17
FE, the rest with the Sigma 17~70. It was a fun time for all, and the
breakfast was excellemt! The two "older" gents in the shot are both
WW2 or Korean War Vets. Bill flew B-25's in New Guinea and Japan and
Jim (the short fella) flew A-26 Invaders and the Air Force B-66.
