Picture of the day: Looking skyward

By General Aviation News Staff · November 30, 2016 ·

Gene Winsett recently submitted this photo, explaining: “I have always enjoyed sunrises and sunsets. But what our creator has provided us and what the gifts he has given man yield a mix that keeps us looking skyward and enjoying every minute of it. That combination looking towards the Sierra Nevada mountains from central California provided one of those moments.”

    That’s just ATC playing their version of tic tac toe. See it often in the Midwest.
    Lots of airplanes going to and from Chicago, plus all the enroute stuff.
