March, 2026 A humans-in-the-loop feed for the aviation community β€” if made by people and flying up to the KΓ‘rmΓ‘n Line you'll find it on BluFly πŸ›©οΈ.

A brand-new issue is out. πŸ’₯ Managing Editor @terencecgannon.com hasn't been sleeping again, and he stumbled on yet another late-night, aviation-oriented gem on @tcmtv.bsky.social. Spoiler: it includes footage of the wildly over-the-top Schneider Cup racers. (πŸ“Έ Mirrorpix | Alamy under license) | πŸ›©οΈ πŸ¦†

Thick smoke blankets the sky in Victoria, BC a couple of years ago as two πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ bird icons play & prune along the ocean shore waters.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #posted or #red.

These two characters certainly qualify for the #red option πŸ˜ŽπŸ‡¨πŸ‡·πŸ¦œ. Not sure what has their attention on the ground below 😊

Who is Jeremy Hansen, the Canadian tapped by NASA to fly around the moon? Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen will soon be blasting off on NASA’s Artemis II mission. How did he get from an imaginary treehouse spaceship in rural Ontario to the real thing?
