co_sky_pirate 0 #9 December 15, 2006 This one is from my old Hornet 190 (don't have one of my Pilot 168 yet). Can we say 90-degree-off-heading-opening here? I mean look at those lines! There's something about the smell of jet fuel, nylon, and adrenaline that gives me a huge boner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacques I was wondering if anyone was going to notice the clouds. It was a hnp (sort of, had a little delay). Clouds was at about 3200' so minimal ff time.
