Cool Pacific Coast Dream Machines

Spent some time in the back of Doug Delapp's -8 on the way to Half Moon Bay. Doug's ship keeps my inspiration up for my own build.

Couple of pictures and a short video.

Northbound out of HMB. Shoreline just South of the Golden Gate.

Inbound to HMB over san Francisco Bay. Alcatraz island off the left wing and the City of San Francisco. Reflections in the canopy kept me from getting the Golden Gate.




Picked up some turbulence. best I could do shooting with my phone

Awesome. I saw the -8, but sorry I missed talking with you. I was helping park airplanes.

We would totally welcome a Vlad visit to the best airport in at least CA or dare say the whole US?

We probably have the most number of Yaks of any airport i know of. We could use your help in reading some schematics written in cyrillic.

I would just avoid our "winter" months of June and July!
