Not much sightseeing in the Northwest this weekend. Here is a picture of Mount Baker from Wednesday before the atmospheric river showed up.

The high point was stringing together a whole series of classic barrel rolls.

Sorry, all the video is in my head...

Crossed the Cascades Wednesday morning as the atmospheric river was brewing… by the time I crossed them again that evening I was riding the river home. Nice tailwind, but a bit bumpy over the hills. On the ground a couple minutes after sunset.

Initial fitting of interior

I have a Classic Aero interior, and man is it amazing! Jeremiah has been super helpful in providing some tips and tricks for installation.

I have not installed the side panels yet, but that’s next up on the list

Nice looking with the color scheme. When I first saw it, it reminded me of a humanoid robot sitting there. I am tagging this in my favorites for when I get to that stage on our Rv-12iS

Nice yellow wings

Glad you are enjoying the commute!

Went for a cold, bumpy flight with all the x wind I care to fly in!!

At least I have a prop to enjoy to look at. Almost went the other route with deposit to be tied up in courts for awhile or ever.

Now back in the box to wait on engine mount/canopy frame. Those might be a year or so, hope not.

Lake Ice Patrol

Forecast yesterday was for IFR all day. The weather didn't cooperate though, and the skies cleared early afternoon, so off I went. In the first picture, the "tectonic plate movement" of this lake I found very artistic!

Re the second picture, only a few lakes have any open water, so the migrating birds tend to collect there. The round area in the second picture is open water (just above the wingtip) and is currently home to perhaps 500 geese and a few hundred trumpeter swans. They are very noisy... the arrow points to where we live.

Very beautiful neighborhood. I can't even imagine.

In Georgia, I was outside in sleeves, but no jacket, picking up pecans that have fallen from my trees.

Terrific photos!!

How did you take this pic/video while in the front of the airplane ?
