Crap, I forgot my gloves this morning.

Ah, I’ll be careful. No big deal.

Uh huh…

I hate to be the one to break it to you, luv, but your nose job is a bit… obvious 🤔

The moon and the world

Despite it all, keep flying. There’s always another sunset.

Sharing this one again because I really like it and it deserves a little more love.

The student becomes the master! @303snowwolf.com passed his certified flight instructor checkride back in the spring. And deserved a gift! SF fur interested in flying, look him up!

A light teal David Clark aviation headset is in his left hand, propped on his hip. He is giving the viewer a wink, "tipping" the mortar board cap.

The best way to experience “The City” is from up here.

I’m in a mood this morning, so have a big Kairyū looking menacing like she usually does.

I regret to inform everybody that the company safety team and HR have both told me that wearing -only- steel-toed boots and a hi-vis safety sash is inappropriate for work on the ramp.

Killjoys...

What's old is new again

#avgeeks #MSFS2020
A screenshot of Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) featuring a Douglas DC-3 in a United Airlines livery, flying over Merrill C. Meigs Field Airport (KCGX) in Chicago, IL. Though re-recreated in the simulator, KCGX was abruptly closed on March 30, 2003 by order of then-mayor Richard Daley, who ordered the runway obliterated in the middle of the night, stranding aircraft parked there. The city paid a meager $33,000 fine for the closure (as Meigs had an instrument landing system and the FAA required 30-days notice) and the land was turned into a park.
