Bob's hanger, back home,
where the trip began.
|
 |
I love these type of
shots. Here's Bob, setting his Air Cam down on a deserted beach to
stretch his legs. Texas
Gulf Coast between Port Aransas & Galveston
|
 |
The kind of view that we
all see, every day. Right? Not! Here's Bob, hopping
his way through the Carribean.
|
 |
This has to be the
coolest instrument to lust for. Ft. Lauderdale to Nassau, Bahamas.
Then on to San Salvador and Stella Maris, and Turks &
Caicos
|
 |
Self-portrait of the
artist, as a crazed trans- continental Air Cam pilot. Landed on a
canal levee in an unnamed western state
|
 |
Back to the inviting
waters of the Bahamas.
|
 |
Bob gets the award for
setting his plane down in the most offbeat places on the continent.
Langtry, West Texas next to the Rio Grande River canyon.
|
 |
Great place to have two fans working for
you. You wouldn't get a better view from a helicopter.
|
 |
Another off airport
landing, out in the desert. Almost anywhere serves as an Air Cam
landing site for Bob
|
 |
Bob's Air Cam, possibly
the first plane to ever land on this particular stretch of dirt.
|
 |
A
river sandbar in Arkansas where these 2 famlies were having a fish
fry. Bob was invited to
partake, but had to go.
|
 |
The view from the
office, in heaven.
|
 |
No land in
sight. No hiccups, please.
|
 |
This is the beginning of
a significant over-water portion of Bob's journey.
|
 |
Running down a dry creek
bed. I don't think that Bob was contemplating landing here.
|
 |
Death Valley Furnace Creek airport.
|
 |
Using a country road as
a runway. When you fly along at 200', it doesn't take long to set
it down. Speed brakes not required.
|
 |
Straight over Mt Whitney at around
16,000. Cold! As
soon as he went over the edge, he dove down to the warm desert floor to
restore his circulation.

|
 |
At long last . . . finally back to the Seattle area
after trekking 8,242 miles. What a feat, Bob. We all envy you.
