Flight

Got to take a local test flight with Greg, on a plane that he was going to ferry out to Maine shortly.

I have very little experience with small planes; while I've been flying since I was 4, or some such, it's nearly all been commercial. I've never yet flown in a single-engine fixed-wing airplane, even. This was no exception -- a Partenavia P-68 B. Strange beast; twin piston engines, fixed gear, high wing. Looked to be 4 seats (not all the seats were actually present).

There's most of a roll of slides around here somewhere, so more pictures should appear when that surfaces and I get some time. The in-flight engine pic is off that roll.
