Very impressive!

Here's one taken (cheating, not a drone) through the windshield of my Husky (and through the prop arc too, to explain the artifacts). This was heading north at about 10,000 feet, over a solid cloud deck, and just almost 60 miles away. We went passed within a few hundred feet of some skiers - we waved at each other.

Believe it or not on Monday May 20, 2019 at about 9:45 I took this photo ( with my Canon camera) just hundred feet below the summit of Shastina. What a coincidence! And I was above 11 000 ft., so I could see the top of your plane's wings

I was doing about 120 mph, so probably passed around 10:15. Really a coincidence! (I was probably warmer than you, BTW!). So you saw me go by?!
