After we made our Leadville landing (I’m using the royal “we” here), I started telling everyone I’m a pilot. All cause Bob Penner said so.
I got some fab pics on Tuesday’s plane ride. Really fantastic. But what would have made the pics even better? If I’d been capturing images from the front passenger seat.
I tried.
Howard: Why are you sitting in my seat?
C: It’s my seat. Bob Penner says I’m a pilot.
Howard: What?
C: I have a certificate and everything. From our Leadville landing. Leadville is North America’s highest public use airport at an altitude of 9934 feet.
Howard: I’ve heard of Leadville. You know, cause I’m a Colorado pilot and all.
C: Yeah, well you probably didn’t know the exact altitude. Am I right? Anyhow, get in the back.
Howard: You get in the back.
C: Fine.
Colorado’s mountains are glorious no matter your vantage point. But hovering above them from a four-seater? Well, they’re something even more spectacular altogether.
