Nice shots, I imagine there will be UFO sightings reported if you keep doing that.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Had one of these fly into my yard last fall. Scared the crap out my wife.  I was in the garage, she did not call to me in time.  She said it was hovering over the privacy fence next to the garage about 20 feet inside my yard.  I would have knocked it down if I would have gotten outside.  >:(

I don't fly near people so early morning works well.

Just sounds like BEES. Beautiful shot, though.

I think maybe 1000 feet and 7 to 10 minutes, although some guys have gone for serious
altitude---a mile or more.
I've had some problems when I get too far away!!
