I love cloudscapes from the air, I fly quite often and never tire of these sights.

It's great to see shots like that Micko, not a lot of us can get a chance to see a sunset from up there..

what can i say Micko!!! Thats Fantastic!!!!

It was great, the plane was almost empty and I had the pick of the windows. It also highlights the advantages of digital cameras I must have taken 30+ exposures to end up with these two :)

The flight into Gove last night got a bit more lightning than they bargained for ....
Got hit just outside of cairns & had to overfly Gove to Darwin for Engineering checks :scared:
And yes, itg was the Big storm cell the weather Bureau was warning about yesterday :help:

Tell you what I am a BAD flyer to put it bluntly I hate flying. A little bit or turbulance and I am panicking.
