My tenth airline flight of 2004 came unexpectantly yesterday. It was my first this year that wasn't an internation flight, only the sixth that wasn't trans-continental, and definitely the only one that took off and landed at the same airport. Oh, and it was the first one where I helped push the plane back into the hangar afterwards.
My friend Jason Harkins of Dallas was in town yesterday. Who knew he was a pilot? And who knew that when I asked him almost jokingly to take me up he's say "let's go!"
We buzzed around the west Texas area seeing all kinds of cool stuff from the air. Some of the things I knew were there (like the King Mountain Wind Farm) and other things were completely new to a guy who's been around this area off and on for 27 years (like the Goodyear proving tracks). I had a blast!
You can see a few more pics here, here, here, and here.
