Afternoon Flight with Edmonton Flying Club

Micheal ready for takeoff

Last Saturday Images Alberta Camera Club had an outing at Edmonton Flying Club.  We spent the morning with one of their staff photographing a variety of their small aircraft on the tarmac.  After lunch, David, Micheal and I snagged one of their $100 introductory flights.  We flew east out to Beverly bridge where we were able to see the new bridge being built for the North East Anthony Hendy freeway.  From there, we banked west and followed the river past downtown and the U of A. A quick pass to West Edmonton Mall and then back to the city center airport.

It was a great day and the price of the aircraft split two or three ways was a great finish.  I will have to look at this again in the fall when the trees are changing colour.
