"bring a map , compass , food and a bedroll" again , nice pictures . did you get a picture of "the spirit of st. louis" ? Yes, we missed at least 4 other museums that were right there but we just did not have time to visit them and by the end of the day my feet were killing me. We walked about 27 miles there in DC according to our phones. No, no picture of the Spirit of St. Louis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT500 Posted December 8, 2013 ID:761896 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'll take that Bell UH-1H in your first set of pictures. Nice helicopter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daledoc1 Posted December 8, 2013 ID:761898 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Yes, GREAT! Air and Space is VERY cool! DANG! I was on my old lappy on a hotel network when I first looked at these earlier today. They (and the ones in the other threads) are even more impressive on my home desktop monitor! And these were all shot with your "low end" camera??!?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted December 8, 2013 Author Root Admin ID:761930 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Yes the little Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 is a pretty nice camera overall. The 1"-type Exmor CMOS sensor is really what makes a difference for a camera in it's class range. Certainly easier to cart around and not so afraid someone is going to try and steal it from you in public. Glad you like the images. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT500 Posted December 8, 2013 ID:762142 Share Posted December 8, 2013 i spent some time in hueys ... the chinooks would about shake ya to pieces . I know a guy who flew helicopters in Vietnam, but he mostly flew the Loaches and did spotting for the Huey gunships. The guy was crazy, hovering above battlefields for hours in that little helicopter, staying to continue spotting even though he was taking enemy fire.
