Picture of the Week
The AOPA Expo gets underway today, so let’s kick off the ceremonies with another installment of AVweb’s “Picture of the Week” – our regular Thursday feature wherein we spotlight the best reader-submitted photos that have come into submissions box over the last seven days. Richard Rice stopped our hearts for a second with this dramatic shot of skydiver Jennifer Jennings (on her first jump) and instructor Larry Portman. “A perfect view of a perfect day!” writes Larry, who submitted the photo for consideration. Congrats, Larry – watch your mailbox for an official AVweb baseball cap, because your photo is this week’s “Picture of the Week”! (To be featured on this page and possibly win a hat of your own, remember to send us your photos!)

The boats are put away, but here is my neighbor's 1945 Piper Cub, ready to go as usual. The lake won't freeze for another month, so there is lots of time left for this old bird." | |||||||||||||
