My dad, I, and his friend, Mike, decided to take a flight one cold morning over to Sky Acres airport in upstate New York for some breakfast, and then we decided to fly over the (Improved) VFR corridor over the Hudson River through New York City. (It's improved because they've made it easier to navigate after that horrific crash involving the helicopter and plane that killed 6 people occurred years ago.) So, we flew down the river and I took some amazing pictures. Yes, it was freezing cold in the plane without heat, but hey, I got some killer pictures.
