Like the Hawk landing safely on our backyard fence, we landed back safely at the Ottawa airport late last night after a terrific two week cruise through the Panama Canal (San Diego - Fort Lauderdale). Will catch up soon once we get settled back in.

Great shot, Hank!

A pity about the wingtips,but what a sharp shot and great pose, ready for take off.
Not easy to make.
