Mark Warner, 68, a wildlife photographer, flew the AT in Piper Cubs that he restored (a '47 and '59). He took a series of aerial shots of the trail from vantage point of 500 to 2000' above the ground. He studied maps beforehand and used a GPS to get the shots he wanted. To get just the right shots--angles, light, etc--he thinks he logged more than 20,000 miles flying. There's a review in today's print Union Leader, but not the online version. Here's a link to the book itself. I went "flight-seeing" once. It was fabulous to see mountains from this perspective.
