Built in 1988 and first flown as 4X-CUG, this Astra became N125GB in August of that year. At the photo date it had its fourth US registration and was at least the third N112EM of E. Micah Aviation, the previous ones having been a Commander 690 and a Westwind.

Despite the overcast, heat haze is visible when looking over some 275 m (900 ft) of tarmac. This Westwind was built in 1982, factory registration 4X-CUL. It is shown with its sixth US registration and a similar number of owners since then. Cessna N6064J is a 1972 150L model.
