Just a few loops

One of the overhead bins is broken and they have to do paperwork so we gotta wait on that

Omg girl no come back 😭😂 I’m sooo close

Pleaseeee let me get assigned a window seat on the left side tonight

Spent the morning being too lazy and now it’s too late to visit the gardens ☹️

Smh gotta pack 4 pairs of undies for one day, you never know!!

Visited Powell’s yesterday and was not disappointed in the slightest bit. I wandered and peeked at books for hours. The rare book room was amazing and felt sacred, too. While there were many more books I wanted, this is all my bag and wallet would allow

Maybe a red eye back home will be worth it tonight 👀

I’m willingly watching sports at the hotel, which is why the Bears are probably losing

😂 washing my hands in the bathroom and this dude walks in, sees me, walks back out, then comes back in. My hair will get people every single time lmao

First time I could get out in a bit due to weather. -15°C out brrrr

I’ll be attending both Thursday as that’s what will be left before they close. I’m getting some people together on the 24th to come visit as well. Please try to stop by, or lmk if another day works! I would love to give the place a nice going away deal. Planes and brews!

I had two windows yesterday, and the Aldiss behind me kept trying to take photos/videos in the one they partially had. I offered to take some for them throughout the flight and they seemed really grateful for that. How can you not love seeing things like this?

Some pics from one of my last flights in the B55 Baron during my MEIR course. Taking off as the sun is setting and flying in actual IMC was stressful but a great experience. A classmate came with and took a lot of pics n vids.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (1999)

From 0800 to 1500. Air travel is amazing. (Plus my first time flying the Winter Games livery). #avgeek

Maybe I won nonrev roulette today after all

Finished my long solo Cross-country flight! Hampton, GA to Columbus, then Tuskegee AL, then back to Hampton. Almost done now, just gotta take that check ride! #flying #aviation #pilot #cessna

May have lost nonrev roulette today (and yesterday...), but this breakfast kind of makes up for it. Scratch made the blueberry pancakes, and steak cut bacon is a must

American Airlines A319-112, N709UW. Originally delivered to US Airways on March 31, 1999. MIA. 1-15-2026.

Last night at the planespotting bar a party came in and it was a well-known airline pilots association! The bartender told them I'm a pilot (she was very excited to tell them, I didn't want to bother them lol) and they invited me over. Got some great encouragement and advice from them

Building some night hours ✈️

First paycheck where I don't have to shove it into a car note 😌 feels amazing

Some of my models have started arriving! I need to hang my shelf up so I can start making some space for them

JetBlue’s new “Isla del Bluencanto” livery arriving at KBDL via runway 24, 01/13/26 #jetblue #puertorico #airplanes #aviation #avgeek

Spent some time in the snow the other night to hopefully catch some heavies and then they got held due to the sheer volume of inbound flights. Finally they started coming in, but by then the snow had stopped. National Cargo's 30th Anniversary Livery #avgeek

Well, in other news, the planespotting bar will be closing at the end of the month. It feels very sad to know a place I've come to love and consider a safe space is going away. I've made so many great friends through the staff and regulars and many fond memories of hours spent staring out the window

I needed a little break because (as we all know) everything has been hot garbage lately and it’s been so much 🙃 but I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss it here

Golden early mornings at the #slcairport! #saltlakeairport #goldenhour #spotter #airplane #airplanes #planes #planespotting #aviation #avgeek #avgeeks #spotter #planespotter #planespotters #aviationlovers #canonR5 #sigma150600 #shotoncanon #b767 #boeing767 #cargo

No idea when it'll be still (other than this year), but I will be soaking up all the brews and views before the planespotting bar closes

United offer Italian Beefs out of ORD challenge.

Just realized that today is the 30th anniversary of getting my Commercial Pilot’s License (it was a few more years until I actually got a flying job). #AvGeek

Me simply getting out of bed every morning

*gestures around broadly*...everything is....not great. Here's a pair of UA 757s @flysea.bsky.social over Mt Rainier / Tahoma

Finally got in the checkride. Now seaplane rated! Definitely a lot fun to fly! This really was the most fun rating so far. But was still nervous during the check ride... comes with the territory

Nice and rainy here in Chicago this evening. Some holds here and there, but some pretty trails to follow. Filtered to show inbound flights to ORD

Finally adding new model planes to the line up and need help with purchasing an A319 model. It's a different brand and the models are smaller/seem to not be as great quality, but I can't locate any other brands. Given the selection, any votes? I specifically want the wing fences on them as well

Cannot believe SDF is LGBTQ+ friendly, but ORD isn't. Unbelievable and betrayed.

In a world where evil and disrespect is prevalent, give back kindness

Pour one out for the homies - Planespotting bar will be closing for sure 😞 Pains me to hear it, but sounds like unless there’s a magic uptick in business this is it for them

Alaska’s global 787 livery is officially unveiled here at Boeing Field in Seattle.

I was one of six people selected to do an ops tour at ORD for AA! Super excited, I love seeing how things work

📆 January 6, 2025 📍 Boeing Field (BFI) 📍 Seattle, Washington • N784HA Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner Alaska Airlines • Say hello to the brand new livery on Alaska’s newest 787 🥹 • #AvGeek #Aviation #Photography #PNW #Seattle #Washington

Happy 100th birthday to Lufthansa! Some of my favorite frames of the famed German flag carrier from over the years.

Anyway, have some strut and runway

At not fault of nobody here, I miss having bksy be primarily fun aviation stuff. I loathe that the US gave into the idea that have a woman president with common sense would be infinitely worse than what we have now. That obviously isn't just here, but this was the fun avgeek space for me :(

There’s just something so fun about laying in bed
