Larry LeRoy submitted this photo and note: “My 1968 Cessna 180 on Edo floats on Lobster Lake in Maine. I landed on the lake to check up on a couple of canoes that were waving what I thought was a distress signal. Ended up they were friends who recognized my plane and just wanted to say hi. This was a picture they later sent to me.”
Photo of the Day
Picture of the Day: Superb wings
Michelee Cabot submitted this photo and note: The best Mamabird made, my 1985 P-210R. Touched down in every state in the lower 48 and many airports in the Bahamas, Central America, and Canada. The superb wings of one who became a Flying Octogenarian.”
Picture of the Day: Short final over the beach
David Berman submitted this photo and note: “Pilot David Berman landing his Citation 3 over the beach in St Maarten.”
Picture of the Day: Increasing visibility in the pattern
Gary Bipes submitted this photo and note: “Test flying my Sky Raider with the smoke system. I use it in the pattern of an airport. It makes a slow plane stand out. I start short bursts on downwind, then on base, and while on final, do short bursts, so other planes see me. We have many aerial applicators using our airport. They say it gets their attention. I get comments from other pilots, ‘is there something wrong with the engine? It is smoking very heavy.”
Picture of the Day: 12 years in the making
