Where Did You Fly This Week?
- Thread starter jordane93
- Start date
Flew on Friday the 13th from Creswell to Powers, a nice little grass airport in a quaint valley (all the valleys in Oregon are quaint.)
I recently picked up a Canon PowerShot camera while killing time in a Radio Shack and wanted to try it out in flight. In theory a dedicated camera should be better than a cell phone one because of lens size and quality. I don't think this 34 second test video really shows what it can do (it was a hot hazy day) but I include it for completeness:

This is the return flight as recorded by CloudAhoy (I forgot to record the flight down):
However, I went there because I wanted to claim it for the Operation Fly challenge (just the second airport I've managed to claim; Peter Yee had snagged a large number of Oregon airports several years ago, so pickings close to home are slim):

Is that as scenic as I think it is? Wife and I have been down the inside passage on the ferry from Skagway to Bellingham. Nice thing about a ferry is it goes slow enough take in the scenery and aquatic critters. Down side is all the scenery missed during the night. Still, I do hope to fly that route someday.Threefingeredjack said:
