Default Challenge II - Glacier Girl

I was at Middleborough, KY for Glacier Girl's maiden flight a few years
back. Got some good shots (considering the weather). But this one would
have been my favorite, and it's obvious as to why I was really bummed when I
processed the film and saw it.

Judging from the angle of the picture, you must have been standing
right next to us that day..

Probably were John. Here's a pic of my wife Kathy and I after the flight.
One of my favorite pics of the day actually.

I did'nt get any still shots that day,
everything was with the video camera, and I was holding my radio up
close to the mic so that all the radio traffic between Bob, steve and the
chase plane could be recorded.

Was a GREAT day. after years of good work.

It's a cheap, fast, non-professional fix, but perhaps this might lighten
your burden a bit...
