Ummm!

A THRILL RIDE !!

LIKE THE FLIGHT THROUGH THE SKY SCRAPPERS AT THE OLD KI TAK AIRPORT IN HONG KONG !!!!! NO FOR THE WEAK O F HEART !

YES, THAT MUST HAVE BEEN SOMETHING, PAM!

I still know this airport in HONG KONG. You could count the flowers on the balconies of the houses in the flyby...

Terrific image. The atmospheric mist plus the detail on the rocky mountainside. I no longer fly, not from virtue but from fear. If I'd been in that one I'd have ben hoping to crash into the mountain and have it all over.

Amazing image George.

Magnifique et bien rendue,c'est vrai que çà fait peur de voir cet avion
atterrir dans ces montagnes enneigées et pleins de brouillard.
Bonne semaine.

Great capture!

A fabulous picture George...I definitely wouldn't want to have been a passenger ;-))

I'm also sure that I don't want to be on this flight - but a great catch!

Fantastic!!!

Awesome shot of the plane against the mountains.

You two have a good day, George.

Hopefully the pilot knows his/her way around. :)
Fantastic shot, George!

Very beautiful!

彡 Good work. Have a lovely new week 彡

That's great, George !

Great work.

That's really an amazing image, George. I don't think I'd want to be on it either. Wow....

A good old tune by the Andrews Sisters. Very fitting. :)

It does make me wonder where you were?

Thanks for your comments, Karen. We were on the Hurtigruten boat off the Norwegian coast, near Sandnessjoen. I've put the approximate position on the "OpenStreetMap" link (you'll need to zoom out).

Oh, thanks, George. Now I see! :)

Another fine capture from way-up-north George. Looks like an 'interesting' flight, but I suppose the crew and passengers are well used to that, up there. All in all, your captures on this trip are far more adventurous and to me more interesting, than the ones I did on my short Greek cruise.

Cheers, Herb

Thanks Herb, it's only a short trip there for you and I'd certainly recommend it. Cheers.

A stunning shot. Great timing and textures. I don´t envy the passengers of the aeroplane!

Not a flight for the rookies! Great capture.

You're right, Steve, I'd want an assurance that the Captain had done the run for many years. :-)

Flying through mountains is not for the faint hearted in any weather, never mind cloudy conditions like this.

I'd fully agree, Amelia.

Many thanks indeed, everyone. I very much appreciate your kind comments on my images, but I'm still time limited and hope you will understand me not replying individually.

Brilliant! The tele effect makes it look closer than it really is;-) I have been on several Dash8 flights recently, they are really very agile and easily land on very short landing strips.
