Here's the little guy, started in daylight and landed at night. It's a lonely sky up there in a small plan, eerie too, reminds me of the Stephen King story 'The Night Flyer.' That homing beacon may look big on the ground, but it's small when you up there with the birds.
First shot, the Shiner water tower, we buzzed it pretty low, funny thing is the FAA says you have to stay at least 1,000 feet high, at times we were buzzing shiner at 200 feet! bhahahaha!
Then there's business central, Dollar General, Howards (go in and support Howard), and Boehm Ford, the best place on the planet to buy a car, just go in, ask for Martin Jr, tell him Robert sent you, and you'll get some free pizza! Naw, Just kiddin.
Then there's the Shiner grid, one stoplight says it all. That's downtown, lots to see that's for sure. Check out Werner's Pizza Barn if you are in town. Tell Scott and Bob you were sent by Robert, and you will get some free Fords!
Then there's Timmy's house, nothing spells cool like the above ground pool. Many great times in that pool. And the only time EVER that the Beastmaster punked out early in the 15 years I've known him! Notice the big burn spot on the side of the house where 'THE PILE' is burned
Finally the Bruns Residence and 'Bruns Appliance.' The mustang was placed in front of the house so we could identify the house easier. Notice the red blotch with black top.
Landing a two seater at night is dodgy to say the least, it's cold and dark in the night sky, definately a surreal feeling if you aren't used to it, a definate experience, would be nice to do over and over again.
