Default Photos of the sky

One of the reasons I love flying so much is the unparalleled view that we have from the cockpit. Anyone else have any cool photos of the sky? Here are a couple of mine.

FROPA



This one's on the ground, but I still like it

JoeyMeatballs, is there any chance you could send me a full-size version of that shot? It's incredible
