I have not posted here for a while, been to busy flying !

Here are a few from early Saturday morning, with winter here the smog is quite disgusting in GP :shock:

The first rays of sunlight breaking trough the fog and smog.

The eastern horizon from about 6500 feet.

Here we have Petit ("home") from the north.

Fly safe,

A few taken on Saturday 19/05/07

Postby Rudix » Sun May 20, 2007 6:23 pm

Flying conditions were just about perfect early Saturday morning with the air glass smooth.


Image

A familiar sight for many Gauteng pilots, the one end of the Bronkhorstspruit dam, the sun just rose above the horizon.

Image

Look at the little "waves" of fog just above the water.

Image

Rhino Park from above, a trike and a gyro in the circuit.

Image

Not healthy looking at all !

Image

Not much green around this time of the year !

Fly safe,
Rudi
