I saw these land on the back of a Missile Cruiser with a pitching deck like this one. The pilot matched the up and down motion of the ship as well as the pitching motion flying 20-30 feet above the deck. Once they were in sync the pilot would plop down during the down motion of the boat. You can see to the left of the helicopter is a small protrusion sticking out of the deck with windows. A pilot will be stationed inside helping to guide the helo to the deck. There is also a flight control officer in a small tower above the hanger deck directing the landing. Even with that help it still must take some big brass ones to land!

Pic taken today at a new project I will be doing. Brought in 3 Queen Palms to provide some canopy. Already tore out some stuff out of view and trimmed up some others we are keeping. Still have a ways to go before actually planting anything - have to wait for my herbicide to kill all the nasty Bermudagrass first. Got a taller Queen just for the corner of the house...the others are about the same height. Loose triangular spacing & odd numbers always work well for Queens.

These are in 30 gal. pots and have very stout trunks all things considered. Normally I use field grown but was able to get these so won't have any transplant shock.

It has it's "perks", Craig! ;)


So also from today...this is exactly why I have to keep my truck windows up while driving around town.....even though it's beautiful outside right now and I'd rather have them down.

That's a cig in her left hand resting on the side mirror....and guess where the smoke drifts to? :rolleyes:

Yuk!

Here's a nice looking place on the island here. I like what they did with the yard. Cool old truck, nice choice in fence design, and nifty mailbox too!

I'm partial to single story homes too!
