Daily Photo – Fifteen Minutes to Fort Lauderdale

As an older teen and through my early working years I would occasionally read ‘Viz' a boys comic aimed at the young male adult. They used to have this section called ‘Top Tips' purporting to be readers writing in with useful self help tips. A recurring theme was the use of boxes of cornflakes to lessen injury in trips or falls. Another that sticks in my mind was a grouse about why the pilots get to sit up front. After all, they all the time. They should sit in the back and let those passengers that rarely get to see the great views to the front through the ! On this particular day, while I could see thunder clouds to our south, apparently the pilots of UA1142 saw a break in the clouds as our transition through the wall was unremarkable. But looking back I got this fantastic view of the sunlight from the setting sun streaming through the gap in the clouds with from the storm falling just inland from the coast. I once again turned to my Canon S100

Having flown through the wall of thunderstorms on UA1142 I got a view off to the South West. The aircraft was over or just south of Eisenhower, Lehigh Acres, Florida. The southern end of Estero Bay and the Gulf Coast is just visible through the rain sheets.
