SPC #004-Grooving with 6.6 Hours

Wednesday, 23 April 2008 23:55 by Bill Williams

In episode 4 we talk about the continuation of training after my vacation, some things my wife and I saw in Seattle.  We also cover recording in cockpit, landings, and where I'm at with training.  I've got 6.6 hours now.

I apologize for the long delay of over two weeks, but I was on vacation, and then work had me slammed.  My wife and I went to Seattle, and I wanted to include a couple of pics from that...some of this is discussed in this episode.

First, one of my favorites.  Look at the little guy in front of the brand new 777 before a test flight out of Paine Field.  The scary thing is...compared to what I'm flying, that little plane is big...and in this photo is a good 300 feet or so closer to the camera, so its really even smaller than it looks relative to the jumbo.

Here is the same 777 on its takeoff roll, and lifting off.

 

Here is a giant freighter being loaded...that was quite a site.

 

And a nice shot of the Seattle skyline from the water.
