Bombay,
I have the perfect flat water spot just in front of my office. Except the water is putrid and would probably kill me. So, I'm a frequent flier.

The view from the office is truly amazing, can anyone identify this island? It's the shortest runway that I land on with this aircraft and it has a very limited margin for error. It's a rush...

I will not post my office pictures as I don't want you all to vomit from envy.
What I enjoyed more is guessing from the pictures what kind of jobs you guys all do.
So far I have worked out,
-Pilots
-ROV operators
-beachbums
-Pimps
-retirees
-forum operators ; )
.............

seems like all walks of life are into kiting.
Thats great

Damn flipper, whats wrong with putting a cover on that pool?
at least you winterized the plumbing?

here is one of my new office views (weekly svc indoor pool!)
that roof opens up to let the wind in

anybody else around here need a kiter to look after their pool?

Here is the view from my lab to a hwy.
Where I build and program these humanoids the "Harvey", as Cardio-Pulmonary Patient Simulator
with all the movements and respiration included auscultation for murmurs.
It's close to a real human with different blood pressure with different diseases for training medical students. :idea:

You need to take those two dolls out to your spot and stick 'em each under a kite.

One starting from the water and the other from the beach and then after about ten or fifteen minutes, take their vitals.

Or what's left of them. Settle this beach versus water thing once and for all.
