Flying photos from December 29, 2002 - Near Atlanta, GA.
One of the joys of being a pilot is getting a chance to see things from a
different perspective - from above. This is Falcon Field (KFFC) near Peachtree City,
Georgia. My son took these first two pictures with my digital camera when we were
returning from a short flight over to Griffin, Georgia before having lunch near FFC.
(Front Page 98 reduced the photo quality from 1-megapixel
high-res to what you see on these pages.) 
March 1,2003: A good
friend of mine sent me back a few samples of these pictures that he had processed for
contrast, color balance, etc. I then used my own graphics program to change the
color balance and the results are now shown in the next few pages. The aerial shots
out the window are the only ones that needed reprocessing.
On final approach before heading out to lunch. I was hoping the camera would not auto-focus on the windshield spots. It looks to be doing a good job on these snap shots.
My son was taking pix with both my camera and his. So, I made sure, like any dad, to get a picture of him for my collection. He is checking out my new Garmin GPS 196 on the ramp at Falcon Field. And yes, there was an F-16 Falcon parked there, which is without an engine and is apparently the field "mascot".
