Picture of the Day: Lucky shot

By General Aviation News Staff · April 28, 2024 ·

Cooper Payette submitted this photo and note: “It’s easy to get distracted with all of the different aircraft going here and there at SUN ‘n FUN 2024. I was actually taking photos of the Connie on the taxiway. I looked up and quickly snapped this shot with a Canon EOS R6. I actually thought it passed by and it was going to be blurry but I got it.”
