    On the ground with the high-res LIDAR

    Al, was looking at some old posts, and never noticed your question. The deadload is built to the same weight as a fully loaded jet fighter. When they first build the catapults on new construction of an aircraft carrier, they have to test them out, to ensure the cats function properly, which is...

    The Plane Boss!

    It must have something to do with the way the photo is viewed. Even if you zoom in under 1,000 feet, everything is still in the photo, even if it's at a high altitude. Boyd, we have mentioned this many, many times over the years. You likely are just getting old and having memory issues. :eek: :)

    The Plane Boss!

    Here it is with Cape May Airport. I can't see him leaving any of those runways at the angle shown.

    The Plane Boss!

    The way I figured it was 500 feet or so, how could I determine those poles in the powerline unless I was that close? If you zoom out, you cannot see them.

    The Plane Boss!

    This is odd. I'm looking at Cape May County on aerials, planning for visits this coming season. You know those planes we always see in aerials, and we always say they were just put there by the manager of the aerial? Well, this one has contrails. Below is a closer look, and I think I'm less than...

    Dash, you may have set up your question with the wrong post.

    New Spielberg UFO movie filming in Woodbine

    I was in Milmay 3 times in the last couple years, looking at plants in that big spung south of the main road. Not much there, as you both already know.

    Yes, I didn't learn about the Pig-Pen and Janis romance until just a few years ago.

    Music for the day

    I can imagine them (Big Brother and Janis) in Frisco in some underground bar, making the local hipsters move and shout.

    Music for the day

    Do you older guys remember this one? This band came out in 1967. I love the album cover. Turns out it was fashioned from a popular painting. I'm going to have one on my wall. Also, a good band and great vocals. They were cutting edge.

    Music for the day

    We are both getting old Scott, and both losing our memory. I could swear I posted this song about 10 years ago, and you liked it then too! :cool:

    I like older country. Here is the Grateful Dead's Bob Weir doing a Marty Robbins song in fine style.

    Music for the day

    I'm not fond of that kind of music. "Keep me drinking moonshine and sniffing that cocaine, digging that coal, keep your nose to the grindstone and out of the pills, get out of these hills". To me it's that whole aura of country bars, drinking, women, lost love, no jobs, etc, etc, etc...

    Interesting how they can depict that squall line several days in advance.

    Why yes, he was! (and a tie into a song for Scott). I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night till the morning came around Set out running but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some...

    Music for the day

    I bought this album in the mid-70's I think. Still have it. It's a fascinating story about John Babbacombe Lee, the English man who survived three attempts to hang him. Fairport Convention made this album around his life leading up to the murder (not sure he did it) and the hanging attempts...

    Old pic of pine plains

    I certainly could be wrong, but I recall the gentleman (if there is one) had one foot on the running board.
