    Hey Greg,
    Dallas Love Clearance gave you reroute to Eagle incl. a western Colorado waypoint, DVC. Google Earth shows it as an 80 ft cylinderical structure surrounded by hard pack gravel and a wooden fence. A few antenna are indicated by cast shadows.
    The structure is surrounded by miles of winter wheat and a few alphabet roads.
    If you use the lat/longitude given for DVC you'll see for yourself. What say you, P1D?
    Smooth as Silk landing! Thanks for being so inclusive.

      @rickbunn9789 2 года назад

      The waypoint DVC is located at 37° 48' 32N 108° 55' 53W. It is a GPS point that extends from the surface straight up. This is also the location of a Very High Frequency Omni-Directional Range (VOR) transmitter used by aircraft for navigation and approaches. Not all waypoints are associated with a VOR, if this helps...

    Hi Greg, long time viewer here, been away for awhile. First - another great vid, never get tired of the Rockies, hope you get back to TEX someday. Second, THANK YOU for not doing the 'accelerated super-fast time lapse of the flight' until final approach, with sucky music background. I've stopped following several big pilot video guys because of that. The way you edit is just right; a shortened in-flight segment coupled with an accelerated after-landing segment of the taxi portion. Kudos!
