About Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I...

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone

A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I...

Friction lock - set.
Mixtures - rich
Propellers - fully forward
Flaps - set - 10 degrees
Engine gauges and suction - check

Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
Flight instruments...
Altimeters - check both
... lights - on
Pitot Heater - on
Strobes - on
(to tower): Confirm 3-8-Echo ready for departure
(tower): Hello again, this is now 129.4
(to tower): 129.4. It's to go.
(tower): 3-8-Echo cleared takeoff, the wind's normal at 10 knots.
(to tower): 3-8-Echo
Easy on the brakes. Take it easy. Its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, A state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I...

Oh - i never thought of that - but since i like red in all variations i would take a magenta plane and i also like speed.

Hi there! After reading your creative comments i feel boring! What i think when i see this ..... i think that i wanna get away with a airplane, far away and reach the sun and warmth!
I like how the pilot look at you/us. Nice composition!

cok sagol Kursat, aynen dedigin gibi, izin almak da koca ucaga yer seviyesinden kadraj bulmak da cok zor.. ne uzaklasmaya cok, ne de yaklasmaya ucaga, altina girmeye vs izin vermiyorlar. 2 yer gorevlisi bir de el isaretleri ile pilottan izin isteyip deklansore birkac kez basabildim iste. bu kadari olabildi, buna da sukur demekten baska care yok :) sana iyi yolculuklar! gördüklerini bize de göstereceginden eminim.. :)

slm, keske kaptan amcamizin yuzu biraz daha belirgin olabileymis :)) aslinda bu da basari, hem yasak diye cektirmezler, hem de bu kadar yaklasmak her zaman mumkun olmaz, tabi bu arada pilot amcanin yuzu de ciksin diye koca pistte yeniden konumlayacak halin yok ya ? :)) duses olmasi lazim hakkaten bazi seylerin.. ayni seyler benim de basima geliyor..yarin uzun bir ucusum var, bu fotograf aslinda o yuzden de ilgimi cekti..sevgiler
