Description:
On the way home to SFO from Tel Aviv we flew over this sleeping volcano off the Greenland coast. I love how the southerly wind is wrapping the clouds around the mountain

The night before EgyptAir 804 had gone missing, even though I've been flying out of TLV for 10 years (including during the Infatada of 2006) there were security layers going on at Ben Gurion Airport the next day when we left that I had never seen before, and I'm sure I wasn't seeing all of it.

I have seen the science I worshiped, and the aircraft I loved, destroying the civilization I expected them to serve.

Very cool shots, Steve! (And that's not a pun.) GoogleMaps says it's Beerenberg (bear mountain), a stratovolcano on Jan Meyen Island. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beerenberg I was surprised to see the degree+minute format for latitude and longitude. Do all airlines use it? Degrees with decimal places seems simpler to me when using GPS, but maybe that degree+minute compromise goes better with aeronautical charts. I'm learning all sorts of things today--including that there are four types of volcano: stratovolcano, shield volcano, lava domes, and cinder cones. I had heard those terms, but didn't really know what they meant.

If the weather up there is as nice as it is down here, you should be out flying. I just got back from a trip to York, SC for two gallons of strawberries and a cup of soft serve made with fresh strawberries. But, back to the topic at hand - really cool pictures, Steve.

Did just that, Dennis. A bit gusty today here, but otherwise beautiful, the kind of day we haven't had for a month. Going back up in a few minutes.

Impressive! It looks like it's moving thru the clouds and leaving a wake.
