HoggyDog Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I got David Robles' new N3006 "Esther Mae" paint tonight and dropped her into a little grass strip in Virginia called Alpha Hotel (07VA). The minute I climbed aboard after the preflight, I knew that I had found... ...My Kind of Work Environment! http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/My%20Kind%20of%20Work%20Environment.png After the checks were done, it was time to mow some grass. http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Esther%20Mae%20Ready%20to%20Mow.png We cruised across Virginia on the way to Washington National (Ronald Reagan) Airport http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Esther%20Mae%20Goes%20to%20Washington.png Enjoying the beautiful sound of our two Pratt & Whitneys... http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Pratt%20Power.png After a quick sandwich at KDCA, we were airborne off of Runway 1 and hoisting our legs, one at a time... http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Gear%20Up%20One%20at%20a%20Time.png Goose, it's time- Time to buzz the Tower... but why is it way over there so far from the airport? http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Time%20to%20Buzz%20the%20Tower.png No worries. We'll buzz it anyway. http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Why%20is%20the%20Tower%20So%20Far%20from%20the%20Airport.png This is fun, but I have a better idea... http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Bet%20we%20could%20land%20next%20to%20it.png Bet we could land next to it! http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Lets%20Just%20Land%20Instead.png Should we sit here and wait for all those black SUVs to get here, or take off and pretend we were never here? http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u484/Hoggy_Dog/Expecting%2010%20Black%20SUVs%20Soon.png Thanks for the great paint, David! i7-10700K @3.8-5.1GHz, 32GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM, GTR-2060 Super 8GB, 2x SSDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnost Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 About a week ago a guy flew in and landed with a gyrocopter in front of the Capitol. He was arrested, released with an electronic leg transmitter until he appears for a court date in May. All the security people were up in arms because he was able to fly in under the radar. Your landing Esther Mae by the Washington Monument would cause much greater furor - don.t do it! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late! *scurries around trying to erase the evidence/screenshots* :p Naturally, I would never do such a boneheaded thing in real life. That's why it's cool to have a Flight Simulator so we can do stuff we would never even dream of really doing. i7-10700K @3.8-5.1GHz, 32GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM, GTR-2060 Super 8GB, 2x SSDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
