One of the cool fringe benefits of being a photojournalist is that sometimes you get to go flying for work. I am at my sixth newspaper and have had flying assignments at each one. In Roseville, California, my second paper, I was sent on a flying assignment on my second day. This past year I have been on two flying assignments and both were in the same Cessna 172. Nancy Raskauskas and I did a story last spring on Guobiao “George” Zhang. We went for a short flight over Corvallis with George and here is a video of our landing:
You can read Nancy’s story here, and see a gallery of her aerial photos here.
