Dassault Falcon 900 taxiing for departure runway 21 KSDL. He took position and spooled up the engines but then aborted and taxied back for take off again. Might have been someone clearing at the end of the runway that didn't get off in time.
A Cirrus on final runway 21. This is the same type of aircraft that crashed in NYC with Cory Lidle last fall. A pretty sleek little bird and has even more amazing avionics. I don't personally like the style of EFIS where its one big computer screen divided into pitch, speed, altitude, navigation. It's probably because by just looking at it and not actually using it I feel it is too much to look at all at once and for an IFR scan I just look at the whole damn screen. It's probably easier for IFR hand flying when you get used to it but I will stick with my 90's technology cause it still works great and I usually end up where I am suppose to go.

"Usually," eh? Scary.... ;)
Sorry, by usually I mean all the time :) But would I really put on my blog that I haven't :)
Arizona was great but after just two days and the fact that the weather is always the same, no real seasons I was glad to go home. Very clean and modern but in the area I was in there was no real old school character like good old Williamsburg !
If you are gonna fly out here make sure you buy in on that Columbia 350, at least it will be a lot quicker !
Cheers,
