[Leica] IMG: Visitors at the Airport

[Bill Pearce]

I have flown in the 4 seat Robinson, for aerials, and it was quite 
comfortable and stable as a rock, surprisingly. But don't be in a hurry.

It was a beautiful afternoon, so I checked on the activity at the
airport.  I found two visitors, not usually found at our local field.

The first was a Zodiac Light Sport Aircraft.  Looks like one I would
like to fly.

The next is a Robinson R22, listed as a Beta model.  Powered by a
Lycoming O-360, the pilot said he had been cruising at 110 kts.

I caught his departure, with a larger LifeFlight unit on the ground.

And I found an interesting counter decoration which I may have
photographed in earlier years.

All with the X-E1 and Fujinon 18-55

Comments and critiques welcomed.
