Needing some new publicity photos and mug shots, I went to see John Cross of jCross Photography.  He does portraits and airplane/aerial photography.  He enjoys combining  these missions, which is fine by me!  Here’s one of the resulting photos – me with John’s Cessna 170.  By the way, the engine was verified to be turned off .  With some small airplanes, a stationary propeller can turn into a rapidly moving and deadly one just by moving the prop.   When I meet an airplane parked on a ramp or in a hangar I won’t touch the propeller, and you shouldn’t either.
