Although quite tempting, we ended up not chartering the helicopter while we were in Panama City this past weekend. But that didn’t stop me from grabbing a few shots from above on approach while returning from Mexico City. The weather was somewhat ridiculously hazy but in many ways that just added to the beauty of the views.

Seeing a city on final approach or during takeoff is still one of my favorite views.
