A Pre-Google Earth View


 

JP was keeping his distance but he invited me for a fly-over on July 25th and we met at his hangar up by Miramar



After Jim meticulously primed the pumps, we took off in his tin can





landed



 took off again
(i think he needed to log hours)


and then cut his engine just to terrify me


before flying all over the greater San Diego











this was in pre-Google Earth days and was the only way to get terrain over-view
I was glad to put feet to ground though.
