Shows how slow one can land with just a little wind down the runway.

Other photos from the trip to Blairsville for the Young Eagles event and then on to Knoxville:

For those familiar with the area, the last one is the Cherohala Skyway from above.

A truly gorgeous part of the world.

Thanks!

GoPro videos often make approaches look much lower/flatter than they really are. I think the iPhone gives a much better perspective of the actual angle of my approach, which I do try to keep pretty steep.
