    Such a beautiful bird - great runway as well !!

    Thanks Chris. This was the mandatory "glam" shot for the photographer. Love the dry lakes for test flights. Also great for high wind landings. Never a cross wind to worry about, no mechanical turbulence, extra long, the list of pros goes on and on.

    Hi Ken I missed this shot , great picture.I've been out scouting a good open field to fly my soaring TRIKE for the first time to make sure she's in trim.that looks like a great place.found a guy that has a ranch about 30 miles from me who has a private strip all open and a hang gliding ridge about a half mile away so I can go soar with Jeff Dunham world record holder hang glider pilot.turns out the guy who owns the strip decorated his whole ranch with my chain saw art about ten years ago so I got a big okie dokie for flying there.maybe a great place for Montana fly in.
