| I don't think these are 'sharky' waters. It's extremely shallow here. Still, I'm sure if I had had to ditch in the water on this flight, a great white would have jumped out and swallowed the Tyro whole! We went diving earlier in the day, and it would have been a treat to see a nurse shark or something like that. Saw some big morray eels. |

| Would that be a shark barrier for the wading area?! |

This is where we stayed in Islamorada. |

I think that's a Quicksilver Ultralight. |

| Steve, yes, the new motor is brilliant. Tons of power, and slightly lighter than the old brushed one. Can't wait to have a more relaxed flight with it. |

| Is this on the new, brushless motor? |

| Good luck. Great story! |

Rainbow and a tugboat. It was quite an exciting flight, because there was a security guard who wouldn't let me into the park to take off, and was apparently calling the police on me when I took off on the public land in front of him. All the cars stuck in traffic were enjoying the flying, though, many asked for me to fly them over to the Beach. We still don't know the fate of my girlfriends car, which is potentially floating down the road over on Miami Beach. We can't get there, the roads are still blocked. |

Apparently there was a big palm tree blocking the road... |

Bad traffic, trying to get to Miami Beach after a really bad rain storm. |

| Aha, I thought it was an excellent idea. :) |

| Thanks all. Yes, Steve, this is the second (or third) time. I will put a screw in the top, like you've done. |

| Tell you what James, If a 747 loses an engine your the one to bring it down safely..... |
| Creosotewind, Comment for image # 12585 | 30 May 09 16:19 |
