A couple of days ago the weather quietened enough to take the DC-3 along for a morning flight. Although calm enough to fly, a grey blanket of cloud and the imminent threat of rain wasn't a promising outlook.
A few large raindrops beginning to fall as I unpacked the Dak, determined to get a quick flight in if possible. Fortunately the rain held off and, more surprisingly, the heavy clouds has dissipated sufficiently for the dawn to illuminate firstly the adjacent clouds and then, a little later, those floating on the opposite horizon.
The clouds didn't clear enough to actually get any sun, so conditions were a little dull. However it was nevertheless a lovely morning's flying; a beautiful morning cloud show always turning an outing into a special occasion...
