The other day I decided go through my collection of over 20,000 airplane-related pictures and selected some of my favorites to put on one of my digital picture frames. I chose about 1,000 pictures for the picture frame than, having gone to all that effort, wondered what else to do with the collection. I decided to upload them to my SmugMug website for the enjoyment of my extended family, flying partners and anyone else with a link to the collection

The pictures have been randomized, because that’s how I choose to view them myself.  Down below I have listed some of the subject matter.

The picture-viewing website works reasonably well.  You might want to press the F11 key (on a PC) to put your browser into/out of full-screen mode.  You can click any picture to switch to one-at-a-time viewing mode.  Then you can use left/right arrow keys to advance to the next picture.  The ESC key will exit one-at-a-time mode.  You can download any picture if you like.

I hope you enjoy them, Steve

P.S. When folks view my picture collection they sometimes comment on the “need” to fly safely, or my apparent failure to do so.  Rest assured that after 2,800 hours in my airplanes, I know how to fly them in nearly any situation. Please know that just like someone who chooses to climb Mt. Everest or sail a small boat around the world, I understand the risk inherent in my particular flavor of flying and do so well informed.

Wow, Steve. You really need to get out more...

Seriously, if anyone ever asks me again why i like to fly I'm going to show them this photo log of yours. I fly because of all the adventures!

Thanks for posting these amazing and inspirational pics!

That is a very impressive collection of flying pictures.  I have not ventured out of the US midwest where the views don't change very drastically.  I have pilot envy.

 

Stay safe,

 

Dave

Steven, Really beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing.

On a nother topic, could you email me directly rpf@wi.rr.com.  I'm hoping you could send me some pics of your CAMit engine installation.  I'm interested in what you did with your cooling ducts.  By the way, how is it running?

Thanks, Randy
