Palaces to the south of Paris. 21/05/2009, Canon 5D mark II
6 months ago
An improvised flight that turned out to be a real castle crawl:
Chateau de Baville
Chateau du Marais
Chateau de Breteuil
Chateau de Dampierre
Petit trianon de Versailles
Grand trianon de Versailles
Chateau de Versailles
Starts with a quick panorama of the airfield. Then you see most of the preflight checklist, I thought it might interest some of my readers.
It was a holiday, so you only hear the pilots babble on the radio, there are no air traffic controllers.
Usually the traffic is quite dense and it keeps the tower busy. I'll record the radio comm and ATC better next time :)
We take off and buzz several palaces before getting back and doing our usual approach over the garden of Versailles.
Unfortunately, there was a bit of turbulence, which affected the image quality. I need to think of a camera fixing device that absorbs vibration.
