The rules for this photo challenge are;

1.  This month's theme is "Head on".   This can be a static, taxiing or in the air, but the picture must be of the aircraft from Head on (100% front).

2.  The photo must be taken during the challenge period.  The goal of the photo challenge is to get out and try something new, not to got through old pictures to find something that matches the theme.  Any photos posted that are taken outside of the challenge period will be deleted from the thread.

3.  One photo per member (you can change your photo as many times as you like until the deadline).

4.  Photos should be uploaded directly to the "Photo Challenge" thread for the current contest (this thread).

5.  All photos must be submitted to the Photo Challenge thread no later than 11:59pm Arizona (GMT-07) time on Friday, January 6th.  Voting will begin on January 7th and close January 14th.  Any photos posted after the deadline will be deleted from the thread and not eligible for consideration.  You can only vote for one photo and it cannot be your own.

6.  The winning photographer will select the theme for the next assignment.  Keep in mind that assignments that are aircraft- or airport-specific may limit the ability of other members to participate.

7.  Be safe and have fun!

Matt, Cloudy worked for this one.  Interesting gizmos on the sides of the fuselage under the canopy.  Look like major drag producers but I'm sure they serve an important purpose.

"You don't become a professional simply by earning certificates, adding ratings, or getting a paycheck for flying. Rather, professionalism is a mindset. It comes from having the attitude, the ethics, and the discipline to do the right thing — every time, all the time, regardless of who's watching."
