Thanks for your kind words, Philippe. It was the first time I have been out there before noon in a number of years. It helps to have sun over your shoulder!

Happy to see you're back on the tarmac Jim :-)

Better colours than usual here.

And such a collection of wings you've gathered over the years, impressive!

I visited the local airport on the first decent day we have had all week. The Jumpers were out, taking advantage of the nice day, and a couple of other airplanes caught my eye.

The jumpers pack their gear with care.

The jump aircraft was a Cessna Caravan, the best choice I have seen for this purpose.

I was able to get a couple of images of tandem jumpers completing their jump.
All of the jumpers were very enthusiastic after landing.

There were also a couple of other nice aircraft sitting in the sun.
A Beech T-34 in Marine Corps colors.

A Cirrus SR-22, a very nice cross-country aircraft.

Fuji X-E1 and Olympus E-510 with Leica Telyt-R 250/4
