How stupid can you get, Tony? Flying low like that? Don't you know that you are endangering others? What if you crashed? The media would be all over you and giving all of us other " safe" pilots a black eye! How could you be so..........so......IRRESPONSIBLE???? You have got to be a friggin IDIOT!!
You won't believe it, Tony, but we actually had a pilot complain! YES! Actually COMPLAIN that some of us were flying TOO low while out on the Alvord Desert? All of that flat, featureless desert and he was actually complaining about us out there enjoying all of that space and freedom by flying low. He actually called us "IDIOTS!"
Reminds me of when Gary was ferrying Mr. Ed to Oregon here. He posted these great pictures of him skimming the desert floor. He was having a ball! Yet, I had people emailing me criticizing Gary and wondering what I was going to do to reprimand him for flying that way in my airplane.
I was flabbergasted! Any ways, I responded with, "How can I reprimand Gary for doing exactly what I would be doing under the same circumstances??"
