Scone - a spot of night time photo-therapy

Post by wallace »

My first visit to Scone this year and a spot of luck in being able to stay for the pilot that was undertaking his night rating.

ACS have a couple of new Cessna 152s, this is one of them.

Stella, the other new Cessna 152.

Corrosion Corner. I had never thought of photographing this one before tonight.

The PIPELINE Jetranger night stopped last night. Nice to photograph without the Cambrai cover.

Earlier, a pilot from Glenrothes stopped by....

... and this R44 came out of hibernation, a taxy flight over to the pumps.

The reason that I was at Scone in the first place. Aztecs, once common are as rare as rocking horse poo these days.

PS I may correct the wide angle distortion on the tower shots later ;)
