This is an abbreviated film clip of my morning flight from Rancho Caridad, Nampicuan, Nueva Ecija to San Roque Dam, Pangasinan (then back to Rancho Caridad), roughly between 7 to 8 am, April 6, 2013. It was a bit hazy but the flying conditions were near perfect. An impressive feat of engineering, San Roque Dam, which opened in 2003, is 200 meters high and 1,130 meters long. It's a little shorter and much longer than Hoover Dam (221 meters high and 379 meters long), which opened in 1936.
