see ya next year

while we're up in the air

To continue the high-flying theme of this week, here are a couple of paraplanes enjoying a good view of Amboise and the Loire.  I'm now on the lookout for a dirigible to complete my collection.

sailing high

This is the first sail plane I've seen in Amboise.  Which is surprising since I thought I had seen every possible flying machine overhead at one time or another.  I love to watch the sail planes silently gliding along.  Maybe that's why I haven't seen one before now.

the fly by

I had to scramble to grab my camera as this guy suddenly sailed by at low altitude over our home.  While it may appear that he is spewing white smoke behind, fortunately, they're just clouds.

how time flies

I thought I had seen every type of flying machine overhead in Amboise until this week.  Two of these swooped by so quickly and unexpectedly that I could only get one shot before they were gone.  Is this a metaphor for something?
