..... just around the Bend

Never see a plane take off doing that before
Good find

Good find

Watch it again - but this time just imagine what would happen if some kind of animal decides to walk out of the hedge and cross the road. Bush flying is brilliant, but not without one or two additional risks. Thankfully the biggest thing I ever hit was a Guineafowl - and I was already deccelerating. It left its mark though



I've got one of the Guineafowl too - but it wasn't feeling so good by then

Ouch ! Much the same yes . . . . . . . . . . . .although that Cessna will need more than filler :-(

Poor Giraffe.......bleedin' aeroplanes are a pain in the neck. (I know I know.....!!!) I like the collection of scrap aeroplanes around the bend on take-off.......previous departures that went awry perhaps?!
