Looks like the plane I launched last week!

Yup. Thats it!

Look who I am flying tonight!

I miss the old days of in-flight Wi-Fi media demos.

2012: Global Eagle: Wi-Fi? Who cares, we're on a Grumman Albatros ahhhhh!
2013 JetBlue Viasat: Holy shit this works so well!
2015 Gogo 2Ku: This is meh, but wow a 737-500!
2017 Inmarsat Gx: It's broken, crack the beers!

Not trying to judge how folks handle their aviation content, but rushing to post a YouTube video with no real details, because there are no firm details, just for the sake of being "first," tells me everything I need to know about you. #AI171

only one way the Knicks can gameplan to stop Tyrese Haliburton: grind that Family Matters tape, baby

JetBlue “brewing attitude”

So, uh…huh. We didn’t get far.

A rejected takeoff on a 737-200C was not expected, but I was rolling video and captured it! Look at those clamshell thrust reversers go!

There was an indication in the flight deck and we’ll be returning to the gate for now. #AvGeek

Spent the afternoon scanning a Dassault Mercure pitch deck from 1971.

The jet was an epic flop, with only one order of 10 frames ever booked. Air Inter wound up taking one of the two prototypes too, and flew them until 1995.

This is a rarity: an American Airlines route, rather than a destination or spider, map from Sept. 1992. AA published destination maps almost exclusively from the early 1980s on.

New accident tracking website launched — General Aviation News A newly launched website tracks general aviation accidents "in real time," according to its founders.

As many aviators know, to say I’m not a fan of Dan Gryder is an understatement. He’s a hateful ambulance-chasing bigot who has no business on YT with his speculative crap. General Aviation News is giving his new accident website air and I’m not impressed. Please consider asking them to remove it.

That there's a Philly supporter bar in Tokyo is just beautiful
