Those Michigan Flyers..at it again

A look at N34EC (Jerry DeSantis) taken from N712JF Sunday December 10 after having a wonderful breakfast at JXN (Jackson, MI). 3000' ASL, flying 285 degrees taken with a Nikon digital.

Nice looker Jerry!

337 Michigan Flyers are in the planning stages of our next video production. If anyone in the region is interested in being a part of the new video for the Bahamas fly in please let us know and come join us. We will normally fly weekends and have 3 to 4 cameras in the air and on the ground. It is really a lot of fun and you can be featured on the new video. If you would like to see the current video production you can get a taste of it on GOOGLEVIDEO.COM

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...79&q=skymaster

If you like what you see then you will really like it on your big screen playing on your DVD player. The DVD has 4 different shows on it and cost $10. All proceeds go to SOAPA for the Fly In. How can you beat a deal like that.

N34EC featured in the current DVD available from the webmaster.

As you've read in the "new" Home page, we're seeking pictures of members' aircraft to include on the web site. May I have Herb's and Jerry's OK to post one of these pics on the Home page?

Nice air to air photography guys! I particularly like slowing the shutter speed down so that it does not stop the prop.
Kevin was discouraging the extensive use of photos. I, for one, would like to see much greater use of photography on this site. Whether air to air, air to ground, interiors, exteriors, panels, home field, custom hangars, personal portraits, maintenance issues with exposed engines/airframes, failed parts, etc. Would our co-webmasters comment on whether this is now possible?

Kevin is no longer the webmaster, but we're still subject to some limits on the size of our site. However, we welcome pictures. On the Message Board we prefer that the pictures be downsized to about 600 pixels along their longest dimension and that they be in JPEG/JPG format.

It is still an issue, only from disk space allowed.
This site is hosted on a commercial service, and more disk space simply costs more money.
We pay for a certain amount of disk space, and bandwidth. If we exceed those limits, we end up paying more.
For the forseeable future, video on this site is out. Video consumes a huge amount of bandwidth, and disk space. It is far more practical to upload video to Google Video, than to host it here.

Please feel free to use these on the Home page. I'll collect my royalties later ............:-)

I don't think Jerry will mind, besides he is in Beijing right now anyway. He hasn't even seen this yet. Are you out there Jerry? Hows the chow over there? Try any 100 year old eggs?

I can e mail larger format if needed.

Larry has some Photo Art that I compiled. Maybe we can get one of those up too.

I have a little more information for those who are curious. The hosting company has assinged us or 1000 MB of disk space. Of the allowed 1000 MB, we have about 407 MB in use. They also assigned us 20GB of traffic, each month. Of the 20 GB, we have use 1.9 GB, so far this month. The month is not a calendar month, it is a billing cycle month, which I think ends on the 25 of each month.

As you can see, we have lots of room for pictures.

I asked an independent group of folks what they thought about your pictures, and this is what they said.

On our way from KEKM to KJXN. We went to KEKM to show that we can visit states other than Michigan.
