"A summer Wave Flight"

The following photos were taken from the G-102 on one of those rare summer wave days in August that allowed me to fly completely around the island mostly at an average altitude of 10,000 feet. What made this flight interesting was the route; to Kaena Point, south to Barbers Point, east over north side of Pearl Harbor, continuing on east to Makapu Point, then north from there to Laie (Rabbit Island), and returning to Dillingham. Total flight time was about 2.5 hours.
