Picture of the Day: Another beautiful day of flying comes to an end

By General Aviation News Staff · October 21, 2019 ·

Alan Blevins submitted this photo and note: “Hangar doors are closing on my 1974 Cessna 150 M as the sun is setting in Fairfield County, S.C. As I walked around the back of the plane, I realized that the final peek of the sun through the doors would make a great photo.”

    Alan, you were right: it is a great photo! Your Cessna seems to be saying, “Aw, gee, Dad, can’t we take just one more flight before bedtime?”
