• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Top Of The Mark

Here's a couple of kodaks of the approach to airport in the Kaibab National Forrest, on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. It's pretty high out that way!

 
Couple pics from the flight to Vegas. The first shows the vast expanse of the Great Western Desert. I steered south to the VOR station at Peach Springs (PGS) in order to avoid what looked like pretty biggish hills on the direct line to KLAS. From there we zigged back north to the Boulder City VOR (BLD) and then into the giant airport south of the City of Sin, where I made a passable ILS approach to runway 25L.

 
I don't know what it is, but every time I get to the Grand Canyon, I just have to go down there. :icon_lol:
Great fun skimming the waves.
I hope the banker in the left seat enjoyed it as much as I did. Seemed a little pale.
 
Here's a pic from the flight from Furnace Creek to Lee Vining. I had just jumped over the Inyo Mountains and into the Owens Valley. This is the freeware Death Valley scenery by OZX.
