So this is what the second round of the NHL playoffs feels like? Why is my anxiety already so high? 🤣

I don’t know how I missed the @sdpnsports.bsky.social release of the @stevedangle20.bsky.social plushie but I’m devastated that I did and they’re all sold out now. 😭😭😭

I fear the stress of how much our ATC professionals have been chronically overworked is beginning to show. It is beyond time for the FAA to act and finally make meaningful changes to the staffing levels in facilities across the country.

I’ve never been impressed with space twitter’s attempts at making a bad rocket do cool stuff. There’s a reason all successful heavy lift rockets are expendable, it’s not pretty, but it works.

I always give my little guppy too short of a leash, every time I try and get her configured a little early so we can slow, or try to get ahead of a VNAV Path, or just try to cover off Boeing’s weirdness she’s like “girrrrrl! I got dis.”

Just a casual reminder that aviation accidents are the lowest this year than they’ve ever been since the NTSB began tracking the data.

Just imagining a string of Saturn V failures putting 1969 Moon landing at risk but Werner von Braun is spending his time cancelling typewriter ribbon contracts at the Federal Highway Administration

Happy Mardi Gras y’all.

So yesterday, I diverted for a mechanical irregularity. What’s that, you’d like me to expand? Ok well all the toilets quit working an hour in to a 3 1/2 hour flight. 🤣

Good context: There have been 13 fatal aviation accidents so far in 2025, per NTSB. There were 31 by about this time in 2024, and 28 in 2023.

This is only a measure of incidents, not fatalities — but good to keep in mind when it seems like the planes are falling from the sky.

Sometimes the best healing is done alone on a sheet of ice with your only equipment being skates and a stick.

Even though I’m in the back, it’s cathartic to be in the air again and starting to work back to normal. Only with more knowledge now.

Thoughts are with my aviation family tonight. This one hits close to home.

Gotta say. Late morning, early afternoon departures are the best.

Don’t fly drones near an airport. That is all. Also, don’t shoot lasers at airplanes either.

I might start making this a weekly PSA

Turbulence will not cause an airplane to crash. It is uncomfortable, but not fatal. #themoreyouknow

With the impending doom of a certain application that is likened to a clock, I’ve started this account. Where’s it gonna go? Maybe nowhere, but ask airplane questions here.
