    Default Oregon Coast - North Bend to Astoria

    A recent late afternoon flight along the Oregon coast in one of my favourite fast planes. Part 1 of 3, so... "Wait for it" — Bob

    Holy gorgeous shots! I love those (i cant remember the name of the plane you flew). The wings look so disproportionately short compared to the fuselage.

    Thanks Robin, old chum! (Holy Bat-reference) It's a great little jet, really stable and responsive and it can cruise at relatively low speeds.

    I always feel like im cheating when I do sunset posts - it's just too easy to get great shots.

    Thanks John. It's as close as you can get to a prop plane in handling with the speed of a jet when needed.

    Thanks Adam. I was inspired by a picture of Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach. The FS version of it, even with PNW, was less than inspiring.
