Hi everyone! I'm ramping things back up after a hectic three weeks. I'm currently working on an English copy of the final report on Mexicana de Aviacion flight 940, which I expect will be my next article, though if the report contains insufficient information I do have backups in place.

J and Ari love the BAC 1-11 but my heart has always been elsewhere

I visited my favorite plane again, this time with my podcast cohost @ariadneinbizclass.bsky.social! (That's me on the right, Ari on the left, and the glorious An-2 in the background)

Searched my name and found this post, turns out you were one of the trans women sitting next to us at Rondo Japanese Kitchen, which I distinctly remember. Small world

The draft article is done! The preliminary word count before final edits is 17,218 words. I'm expecting to release it tonight (Pacific time), so stay tuned!

Gazpromavia flight 9608. I spent all of last month working on a professional English translation of the final report, too.

14 pages written and I haven't gotten to the takeoff yet. Always a good sign

You mean the DDR and GDR didn't merge thanks to the power of friendship? Sorry I was in a coma from October 1989 to August 1990 and my kids showed me all these news broadcasts

After finishing my translation of the report, Gazpromavia article is finally coming together. I'm expecting to release later this week. I'll provide a more precise ETA when possible.

Translation of the Gazpromavia report is complete! I will now be refining the translation while assembling the narrative and conducting additional research for an article to be released as soon as possible.

Shortly after I started transitioning, I struggled to open a jar, so I asked a cis male friend to open it. As I did, I quipped that because I'm a girl now, I can no longer open jars. He asked, "Wait, is that a real side effect!?"

Not all, just some. You can check the opening credits to see if I was involved.

Interesting that you're doing Afriqiyah 771. I once attempted to cover it but abandoned the project after finding that the report was very inadequate

I've never heard of this dish but it looks very similar to the google image results for Shakshuka, so I would consider this a success

For the record, I dropped off the 15 pages per day pace for a bit so that I could write another Mentour Pilot script.

Latest translation update is 208 out of 263 pages. And then I actually have to write it. But at least I won't have to spend as much time taking notes. :P

The money from both Patreons goes to me. My cohosts Ari and J decided not to take any because they had high paying jobs and I didn't. However that could change in the future.

They have separate discord servers, though there is a lot of userbase overlap. The CPIT discord is more active despite the show being on hiatus, but you will get more direct discussion of my articles and updates from me in the primary discord.
