  2. Great pictures. And, great angle of the pilot leaving the ferry.

    I usually get the pictures of the pilots coming and going looking down from the side of the ship or from the wing bridge. :)

  5. Wow, so they just open a door in the hull for the pilot?!
    What fun photos here.

    In 1968, when I was young and knew nothing, I was so surprised when they told me a pilot would board our good ship "Enotria" to squeeze us through the Straits of Corinth. Back then I thought pilots were only for planes. :)
