At that height? Shootin' lots but hittin' nuthin'. Doesn't matter, the ammo is paid for.

Like they said to the fighter pilots in WWII don't bring ammo back with you we got plenty more of it coming, understanding you keep some for a possible air engagement but when close to home ground targets of opportunity paste'm good & proper.

That is a very good pic and he is no small man that chap........arms like tree trunks!
