PICTURE OF THE WEEK: Summer Morning Over New York Bay
Happy July 4th featuring this 1948 Cessna 140, all polished up and ready for the camera. This shot was taken in the early evening on September 17, 2021 at John Wayne Airport (SNA) in Orange County, CA with a light summer breeze keeping the flag waving gracefully above. Photo by Jason Herman.
Polished, Patriotic, and Proud
While flying out of Nephi, Utah, I was attempting to make a 500km (311 mile) flight to earn a Soaring Society of America Diamond distance award. I made it about 450km before the lift disappeared for the day around 7PM and I "landed out" at Salina-Gunnison airport. Shot while awaiting my buddies to come pick me up with my glider trailer.
