Default Evening Flight

I happened upon this group of flyers last evening. They have their own little private airport out in the middle of farm country. They were the nicest bunch of guys and gave me a standing invitation to stop by whenever they were flying.

Thanks for taking a look!

Thanks Hayward and Debbie. I will take the opportunity to visit there again, and to be honest, hoping to make them clients... For anyone interested, there's a few more in a set on my flickr stream.

Thank you for the kind comment...I think the first two are my favorite, also. It may sound weird, but it was almost...peaceful...watching them fly around at sunset.
