PhotoStories 16. Each of photos has its own story. Especially the one you get from the plane. We offer to you a new series of PhotoStories taken by the USA 2016 expediton. Today story of the Manhattan photo.

Manhattan's overflight is a great experience for every pilot. We succeeded it by the USA 2016 expedition.

This flight is a challenge for the pilot because he must follow the instructions of the air traffic controllers and watch out for the heavy traffic of the helicopters around.

Seeing the new One World Trade Center building and the whole of Lower Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park and other iconic places in New York is a great pleasure for the pilot.

Take a look at a photo of skyscrapers between the Hudson and East River rivers that we just took during the Manhattan overflight in 2016.
