GMT Master II at 6000 Feet
I took this photo this morning around 9am at 6000 feet up in the sky...
Sorry the photo of the GMT is a little fuzzy...the sun wasn't cooperating. Best regards, J. |

6000 ft is probably cold enough for our frostie to join you without fear of melting

Yep, the red button is for the radio.
I decided to take the pictures after i made some time notations and had to use the GMT function to get UTC time...i never fly without it... Best regards, Joe |

When the subject said 6000 feet, I erroniously assumed below sea level, and thought, "damn, that's impressive!" Then after reading I realized that it was above.
I have thought about sending my SD down on an ROV, but most of the dives are double+ it's rated depth. Maybe, I need to get a DSSD? |

Thanks everyone,
I had originally planned on taking some better shots but the wind had kicked up and things were a little bumpy. By the time things had smoothed out enough for picture taking I was back in controlled airspace talking with the air traffic controllers and getting ready to land so I didn't get around to it. Best regards, J. |
