Santa is Ready

Uploaded: December 24, 2020 | Entered: December 24, 2020 03:13:13

Description

Flight Test has taken me to many areas around the globe. The test profile for our air vehicle required a very cold climate; so we headed North - Way up North! Upon arrival we noticed many signs of flying reindeer throughout the test zone and that is when we started to believe that the Big Guy in the Red Suit was also preparing the sleigh for Christmas Eve - While Santa was checking all systems to ensure that he was ready to fly on the 24th I was able to get one quick image on that night as he passed by.... His signature "Ho-Ho-Ho" confirmed it really was Santa himself!

Merry Christmas!
