Learning to Fly

Today Tony, his friend, Natalie, and myself all went on a four hour plane flight to see some craters in Oklahoma. I think that Tony's friend was in search of a specific location. It was a little bumpy in the Cessna, but we still had a good flight. With the exception of a jet from Vance Air Force Base flying a thousand feet under us we didn't have too many scares.

Some photos:


Flying over I-35 in Kansas. This is the highway I drove on yesterday to get from Texas to my home town.


Who said Kansas wasn't anything but flat. At least in Western and Southern Kansas this is pretty representative. It has been very wet this year, which is why everything in this area is so green.


Some of the wheat fields have been harvested and already set on fire.


This is when we made it to some sand lake in Oklahoma.


And more...


Here are the craters where the Air Force jet flew right under us. It was probably 500 feet off the ground while we were around 2400.

We had a smooth landing and a pretty good adventure. Oh, we took a break in Fairview, Oklahoma. It seemed pretty nice for a small town. There were a lot of backyards with pools.
