Hi everyone, I have already flown on a small plane over the Grand Canyon (JYs Americas Golden West tour) and, while it was exciting being my first time in a small plane, I wasn't that thrilled about the scenery. Primarily because I wasn't given a choice of where to sit on the plane and ended up with poor views going out and returning. I didn't mind too much on the way out as I thought I would get a chance to see everything on the return journey but people were shuffled around to compensate for new passengers/weight requirements etc. on the return and I ended up on the 'wrong' side again (we didn't get to negotiate with the pilot :)). The helicopter into the Canyon was a totally different experience with absolutely amazing scenery. My question is, for those of you who have already flown over the Grand Canyon and over Monument Valley, are the views over Monument Valley really fab from either side of the plane. It's a lot of money to pay if it's just the luck of the seating draw again!!!! Thx Sue
