What beautiful flying conditions you have, Faisal. I'm jealous of your bright blue sky!

Great video!

I see that the factory protective plastic is still on the seats, just like in many Emirati cars here in the UAE!

Winter weather is amazing in the desert. But sadly it only lasts for a few weeks.

They say this helps in getting a better price when selling the car/aircraft! :wink:

Maybe so, but why would you ever want to sell that beautiful Sierra?

Hey Paul,
I don't know about Lock Haven specifically but, we have been having some "Beautiful Blue" here in Northern Pa. recently. Now admittedly, It has been mostly between 0900 and 1500 daily, and the temperatures are no doubt a little different from a desert scene. The White background on the ground is a little more crunchy than the sand. It's a little more challenging to get the body going but, everything is not bad here !

The only reason would be to move to a 4 seater GA.
