Flying high

The pilot in this plane loves looping the loop & he was back yesterday doing his thing!
We hadn't seen him since last summer when he was a regular visitor to the skies above our house. I think he must fly out from Blackpool airport as he always heads back in that direction when he's finished.
The revving & swooping & diving makes you stop & gaze up in awe.
A much cooler & mostly wet day so no new photos today, sorry!

Three good things:
1. I have been sorting my show photos out ready for the agricultural shows which start next month.
2. I followed @jesperani recommendation & am reading Amy Snow by Tracy Rees, loving it Jennifer!
3. We tried out the new chip pan tonight, it makes proper chips really quickly!

What fluffy clouds and bright blue sky.. MY SIL is going for his pilots licence so hope he doesn't come and do loop the loops over our place..

[KWind]

Great coloured sky!

[Cathy Donohoue]

This is wonderful! And you are still doing the "good things" That makes me happy. I did a mentorship where we were challenged to do the same and publicly write our "good things."

[Judith Johnson]

Lovely shot and story.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Nice bits of blue in the sky -- must be one of those magnificent men in their flying machines , Pat . No blue in the sky here today -- only grey clouds ! -- in fact a relief from all that unbearable heat !!

[Judith Greenwood]

I love this - it's proper arty!

[Diana Moss]

How wonderful it must be to soar above the clouds a fav

[Pat Knowles]

@cdonohoue Yes I am Cathy, struggle sometimes but you have to look on the bright side! Nice to see you on FB!

[Pat Knowles]

@beryl Yes not good to be hot when you're stuck in a chair!

[Pat Knowles]

@judithg I am amzazed Judith as I thought this was so boring! Glad it's gone down better than I thought. When you actually see this bi-plane ducking & weaving it is rather amazing!

[Pat Knowles]

@julzmaioro itis a bit scary watching as for some reason it sometimes goes quiet & you think it's stalled then off it goes again!

[Pat Knowles]

@kwind It was hot yesterday so a fair bit of blue Skye!

[Pat Knowles]

@snowy I think if I was younger I would love to,learn to fly!

[Lou Ann]

A lovely scene for sure, how great he entertains you!

[Dawn]

A cool capture

[Tracie Broadhead]

great shot. Ha -they come up with everything these days don't they-a fast chip maker!

[Maggiemae]

We see rides on a bi-plane just about everywhere in the world... $65 per person here. More than $100 in NZ. Anything to keep that pilot flying! That book looks a great mystery! I'm busy reading too many books at the moment! Love it!

[Babs]

Had to smile at your commentary. Is the 'pilate' called Pontious or is he a fighter pilot. ha ha.
Damned predictive text.

[Jane Pittenger]

What a fun view

[Wendy]

Just like Babs, @onewing , I smiled at your pilate error - fun times.
This is a great shot - especially with the blue sky peeking out between the clouds.

[Lois]

Beautiful sky!

[Pat Knowles]

@onewing not predictive text though it's good to be able to blame that, just silly spelling! It's amazing the mistakes you make when typing that you would never make when writing! Ah well but I am still amazed at the response to this photo when I just thought it would do for the day. @farmreporter

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae why would anyone want to ride on top of a plane, they must be mad! Give me a good book anyday!! Glad you're having time to relax!

[Maggie]

You have captured the frailty of these small aircraft against those huge clouds.

[carol white]

Nicely captured

[Maggiemae]

@happypat Actually, I should have said 'rides in a biplane' though I know in some places there is somebody poised on top of a wing!

[Phil Howcroft]

has a surreal feel Pat
