Description: Sunset over the Sierra crest at 13,500 feet MSL. Good testament to the Searey's capabilities with Dan Nickens splashing around at sea level in Fiji. The Searey does well with a 914 even up here...with a cockpit heater!

    Nice photos. What kind of camera are you using?     
  
John Spratt - Dec 03,2010   Viewers  | Reply
    Fuji S6000FD, with a non-removable 28-300mm (35mm equivalent) lens, so there is never any dust on the image.

    Another great shot, John. I had to look twice to figure out those apparent crests floating above the cloud layer. N48? Isn't that an FAA number?     
  
John Spratt - Dec 03,2010   Viewers  | Reply
    The CJ recently departed the N48CJ, which is my N-number. The vinyl numbers don't stick very well to the float's plastic.

    Does the FAA offer some 'latitude' on the N-numbers like that, or is this a more direct northerly reference?

    Lee, I think the FAA reserves the two-digit registration numbers for <br />itself and maybe a few other guv'mint entities. Don't remember for <br />sure, though.

    Wow! fantastic shot John! I flew the RV8 over same area back in July. It is impressive to see a Searey there. Rugged country..... I think I rather be in the Searey if the engine quit.
