Hi all!

I just wanted to wish all of my Gulfstream friends and neighbors a happy and safe 4th of July.

I am not able to be using my GS today as we are at the lake cabin and I cannot get it through the trees without hitting them (pruning to come) and I really don't need it up here.....but I do miss it! lol we do get spoiled don't we? :D

Going to check out the views from 1000' AGL shortly but wanted to wish you all a good day!

"1000' AGL"? 1000 feet above ground level?

Gees, how about a high hill instead? Ha Ha Ha. The thought of how you get your view terrifies me (I know, you've said it's safe).

Every one, have a great & safe 4th.

Bob-

Just taking a break from flying and eating and checked my forums to find your message. It made me smile. I actually found the better air this morning at above 1700' AGL (yes-above ground level) and it was quite a sight. I am heading back out within the hour to take some more relatives to the sky for the fun of it......maybe after a quick nap.

I get my "highs" from a very natural state. Take care.

Kevin,

The 1700 AGL is not dangerous, it's ground zero that can get scary and dangerous. :wink:

Keep an eye out for wires, that has gotten a couple in our area two years ago.

As for me, my two feet stay on the ground! I don't even fly in the big birds!!!
