Here's a picture sent by Paul on the forum. Anyone have an idea what the location is? Seems like the Sierra Nevada near Bishop, but I can't be sure. I hope someone can verify where they are.

That is Lone Pine Peak in the background above the fuselage and between the wingtips. The Alabama Hills are visible, too.

That is fuel leaking on the wings?

Actually, the aircraft just finished refueling.


Journey well...

Here's a link to an earlier thread on this with some peak IDs.

Thanks, Glenn.

Looks like this thread is a case of "hiding my own Easter eggs" blush

Thanks Glenn.
