The view: Over Sumter, South Carolina
The pilot: Duncan Witte
The airplane: Piper Arrow III
The mission: Evening flight from Monroe, NC, to Charleston, SC
The memory: I really enjoy evening and night flying in the autumn. The weather is getting cooler, the air is smooth, and you sometimes get a spectacular sunset like this one.

Duncan Witte is a commercial/instrument-rated pilot, who first learned to fly in Alaska in the 1970s. Then, with fewer than 100 hours, life intervened and he took a 30+ year hiatus, before starting to fly again in 2011. He now has logged over 1900 hours. Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, he was very active in Angel Flight, and looks forward to being able to fly missions again soon. Now based in Charlotte, NC, Duncan is particularly interested in exploring new places by air, and has visited over 350 airports, in 44 states, provinces, and territories in the U.S. and Canada.

Duncan is too modest. No mention of his epic (pre-COVID) adventure to Alaska. Piloted his Arrow on his own there and back. Great photos along the way. We are all envious of his piloting skills.
