Some guy flew a Piper Cub from California to New Jersey and back this summer, so that he could fly up and down the Hudson River by New York City. The photos are a wonder to behold.
There is more on his website.

Airplanes, cats, guns, war, the more than occasional rant about the party of the Confederacy, the spinelessness of the Democrats and crap about anything else that flits through the somewhat offbeat mind of an armed lesbian pinko as she slides down the Razor Blade of Life.

Absolutely gorgeous pictures.
ReplyDeleteLucky bastard.
What a lucky man. I wonder how many trips like this happened after WWII, when people just wanted to enjoy a nice, long flight. Seems improbable now, and only highlighted by this instance.
ReplyDeleteHaving flown to the Gulf Coast and Oshkosh and a few other places he did the one trip thats still pending. The NY Hudson River VFR corridor. It's still doable.
ReplyDeleteLove his pictures!
Eck!
