Shocked to see the horrifying scenes in Louisville, following the crash of UPS flight 2976. My thoughts are with all those affected. #5X2976

Does anyone here know what kind of mx takes place on these at BOD?

I added another F-104 to the ‘seen’ collection today, seemingly under restoration at the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum.

How much priority can one item of luggage get? Hawaiian Airlines: Yes 😂

I’ve spent quite a lot of time on airplanes in the last week, with a couple of firsts: my first time with American Airlines, my first with Hawaiian AND on a Boeing 717 (or any DC-9 relative)!

Unfortunately I’m unable to attend the Paris Air Show in person this year, however I shall still try my best to share as many announcements as I can.

Not the most comforting time to be hearing and reporting an major commercial aircraft accident but as I pushback from BER on this Embraer 190, it’s important to remember that being on board an airplane is statistically safer than being at home.

Breaking: Air India Flight #AI171 crashes shortly after takeoff in Ahmedabad

Hearing reports of Air India flight AI171, a Boeing 787-8 from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick having crashed shortly after takeoff.

IAG orders 71 aircraft from Airbus and Boeing

The first #PhantomFriday for some time! Last week I managed to visit the RAF Museum in London for the first time in nearly a decade, so I was able to refresh my pics of XV424 (which has also been repositioned to be far more photo friendly)!

Good morning from BER, where we’re parked next to a sister E190 to allow for Embraerception 😂

Thought I’d drop in an entry for #stealthsaturday, as we wait to bring in 2025.

I do really wish they wouldn’t interrupt Beyoncé concerts with interludes of American Football…

Merry Christmas everyone!

It’s #TornadoTuesday again, so I’m going to share this very snazzy Italian number!

Taking a different tack for #StealthSaturday this week… blink and you’ll miss it!

My F-4 content is tragically limited so here’s another Hellenic AF F-4E #PhantomFriday

Sharing this lovely trio of Tonkas for #TornadoTuesday!

This week’s #StealthSaturday offering really showing off the gold tint from the indium tin oxide layer in the cockpit canopy of the F-22. Supposedly to prevent stealth-reducing emissions from entering and/or leaving the cockpit.

Hellenic Air Force F-4E for #PhantomFriday.

"'We are used to the Boeing 737 MAX. This is luxury,' a crew member confided to RGN onboard the A321LR."

Tornado IDS of the Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 51 for #TornadoTuesday, seen here matching the beautifully traditional British skies 😂

Icelandair has taken delivery of its first Airbus A321XLR. The airline has 13 on order with options for a further 12.

Pulling G into this week’s #StealthSaturday!

I would like to contribute the worst photo of an F-4 you’ve ever seen for this week’s #PhantomFriday!

For all my fellow Spad superfans, this is a v. interesting story which only adds to my fascination with the A-1. I cannot imagine being on QRA in a nuclear jet, leave alone an A-1. Other than going fast, I really don’t think there’s anything the Able Dog wasn’t capable of!

Happy thanksgiving to all those who observe!

I’ve just seen it’s #TornadoTuesday, so here’s a Luftwaffe IDS. I never used to care much for the Tonka but in recent years I’ve grown to really love the old flick-knife!

There’s only one thing to post for 130 followers: the C-130!

So, is #StealthSaturday a thing?

JetBlue will unveil its next new livery on a brand-new Airbus A220 registered as N3241J (named "Taming of the Blue"). The livery introduces violet accents to JetBlue's fleet.

Man, I really need to catch a ride before they’re all gone 🥲

I’m a day late but I’ve just seen the Jaguar (automotive) rebrand… 🥴

As I passed 104 followers today, here are some F-104s that I’ve found over the years. Thank you all for following! 🙏🏻 It’s great to have a place to share the enjoyment for all this flying related stuff!
