| Senior Member  |  West Coast Trip Well, I lived! We did 22 hours of flying covering about 4000 miles over seven days. We spent the first night in Nashville, the next two in Branson, MO, the next two in Sedona, AZ, and the last two in Vegas Anyway, here are some photos. I ended up doing a trip for our MX shop prior to leaving on our trip. This is their 182 somewhere over the hills of central PA  "Uh Center, Alpha Kilo is going to need a turn up ahead"  There has to be a hole somewhere  I found a hole!  On top  We made it!  On final into Amarillo, TX  Near ABQ, about to cross my first real mountain!  The last time I flew over this area I was in a really crappy piston single, I'm glad I am in a turbine this time!  The view from my hotel room  Flying through the canyons in Sedona, AZ  The Grand Canyon on the way to Vegas  The hotel room view from the Paris hotel  At night  More storms on the way home  My friend took these videos for me Landing in Springfield, MO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A86pSmPLMew Landing in a windy Flagstaff, AZ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNMKV0GP78Y Landing in Vegas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAfqH5a6MrM Flying through the rain on the way into EVY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyGxlsE1cHg Finally back to GED, the landing lights on the Conquest suck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W58p7QdgHFY That's all, Alex.

| Re: West Coast Trip Fantastic pictures as always! I know Im not the only one to say this, but I am hugely jealous of your awesome pictures and your flying experiences! I'm probably only a year or two older than you are, but given your experience you hare 10 times the pilot I am! To be that young and that experienced in so many types of planes is incredible! Congratulations! And keep taking more pictures

| Re: West Coast Trip I know I have asked you this question before, but what lens do you use for the panel shots where you are able to shoot the whole panel? Great pictures once again. |
