That clip from the KSL.com website is of the very
famous photographer, Adriel Heisey, who also has
several "coffee table" books in print that are truly
awesome to see. His captures of the terrain and
landscapes (many of which are unique in perspective)
are just further inspiration for all of us to fly.
I was fortunate to meet him at the Pilot's Rest airstrip
in Paulden, Az after Dave Pelletier graciously invited
me there when he and Adriel were going to share the
sky one day.
As all who remember Dave will attest, he was very
willing to help and assist anyone interested in any
aspect of flight, and I had mentioned that I had one of
Adriel's books. Adriel was kind enough to sign it.
This was a very special day for me, and one that I
remember with a heavy heart, due to Dave's passing.
Please do yourselves a favor and have a look at Adriel's
excellent work. I believe that he flies an older model
of the Kolb Classic. Maybe a Mark II. He designed &
built a unique "pod" for the area that used to be the 2nd
seat, and it houses all of his camera equipment, & the
lenses, etc. for his work. He is also a real neat guy
to speak with.

PS: Thanks for relighting the memories.
