Here we about to intercept the glide slope into the Watsonville airport. I was flying in the right seat as the safety pilot helping a friend out in his Cirrus SR-22G3 Turbo rocketing along admiring God’s beautiful skies. It turned out to be a great day to fly.”

Picture of the Day: Ferry flight
Christian Sanchez submitted this photo and note: “There is something unforgettable about ferrying an aircraft for the first time, and flying it across five states to deliver it to its final destination. The journey offered spectacular views — vast stretches of snow-covered fields, shimmering frozen lakes, and quiet skies. By the time I landed, I had more than a successful delivery under my belt. I had lessons that only experience can teach, a stronger respect for winter flying, and a deeper sense of confidence.”
