Words will be few on this post because I prefer to let these photos of God's creation do the talking. Care to take a short but breathtaking charter flight over the island of Molokai? Yes? OK, then...Capt. Phil has turned on the "Fasten Your Seatbelt" sign. Please place your chairs in the upright position as we prepare for take off.

NOTE: My husband is not actually a pilot; our good friend, is. Phil just happened to be the "co-pilot" that day.
All photos taken with a DSLR, Go Pro and video frame-grabs.

See the small group of late-season whales down there?
We realize you have a choice when you fly. Thank you for choosing Captain Phil Airlines. Aloha.

Pretty amazing, right? The trades are supposed to lighten up this weekend and early next week, so we're thinking a flight over East Maui/Hana might be in the cards.
Happy Thursday, friends.
you really do live in heaven, angie.
ReplyDeleteOh. my. gosh.
ReplyDeleteCan I come along next time?? It looks incredible! :)
OmG... these are lovely photos!! And wow!! I am too scared to get on a plane... or helicopter... haha You are very brave.
ReplyDeleteHoly stinkin' cow, those are breathtaking. I was gonna say at first, 'Phil's a PILOT???!! Why didn't we know about this when we were there!!?' haha but then I read that he wasn't.
ReplyDeleteWe must make it over to Molokai! So pretty.

ReplyDeleteOMG, love the photos, love the cessna!! My bro's friend is a pilot (er, well, getting his hours to be one;) and I missed my chances to go flying with them. My Dad used to have his pilot's license and his best friend takes him up all the time. I'm so jealous -- look at those pics! absolutely priceless!! Please please pleaaaase go again and take tons of pics of Hana:)
ReplyDeleteYou live in paradise for sure! What beautiful photos Phil! We took a helicopter tour when we stayed in Maui back in Dec 2005.
ReplyDeleteWow! It's such a beautiful island. I miss it every day and can hardly wait for the next visit.

ReplyDeleteThe north side of Molokai is absolutely amazing. I got to see it first hand from a boat back in 2006. Hard to get to, but that is part of it's beauty.
