Hollywood Sign and Reservoir flight after wind delay!

January 19, 2023 | be3n

Top of Los Angeles - 360 panorama of los angeles from above the hollywood sign

A wise pilot i know says, “it’s better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air than in the air wishing you were on the ground.”

I was hoping to fly Tuesday, but wind gusts were too much for my little Mini 2.  I flew Wednesday instead.  not quite as clear, but the haze was truer to character for Los Angeles.

I’m at the Stan Lee Tribute in Hollywood!

Stan Lee Tribute

This is an amazing crowd. Everyone here was inspired by the worlds and characters created by Stan. Many have even made careers out of his creations.  More.

I’m at an industry mixer for reality tv drumming up biz. I have no idea how to mingle with these people. so I sit by the emergency exit eating free food and drinking cheap booze and occasionally performing feats of dazzling technology.
