Pinky plans-68 viewsThe Pinky flying wing plans. This is one of my favorite planes of all time. (believe it or not) I've not been able to duplicate it's performance since, note my excessive use of significant digits. Though today's Boomerang is close and better in several ways. Plus, the Pinky was disturbingly fragile.

Me holding Pinky-85 viewsHere's my flying wing, "Pinky". Rough designed by either Charlie or Mickey (never got a straight answer). I loved this plane. Lots of fun and very capable. Not much better than today's Boomerang and only 5% as durable but a gas none the less! It's one of my favorites of all time.

500KV Staged Fault!-114 viewsThis is an intentionally staged fault on a 500KV line to test the protection system. This shot was taken in full DAYLIGHT! The iris had to close quite a bit due to the arc's brightness. Similar to a giant arc welder, this thing was bright. I bet it was astoundingly loud too.

Aircraft's "wake" over Lake Tahoe-81 viewsA comercial jet passes low over lake Tahoe. The pressure wave under the plane is clearly visible in the clouds behind. Also, slightly noticable is a swirl on the edges from the wing vortices.

Post Frontal Thomsen Peak-58 viewsTopographically the best slope in Lassen county. It's only 3 miles out my back door, as the crow flies, and rises to 7600' ASL. Taking the road though, it's 21mi. Sadly, the wind never works from this direction.

An old barn near Minden, NV-57 viewsTaken by my ISP guru Ryan Flowers in 2003. Neat looking barn. Notice the mountains rising in the background. Don't know how old it is but is looks to be dripping with history.
