We thought we’d Vegas L-39 style, but ATC had other ideas. We had to divert: youtu.be/nbx0owVsCG0

Not everyday you get some formation instruction from the former commander of TOPGUN, but that's just one of the perks of living on an airpark, and it's all in the new vlog: youtu.be/sd0r2G0aDvE

Hey , while we’re giving all this free shit to Ukraine anyway, how about if you throw in an F-16 for me too? I’ll take much better care of it, and it really wouldn’t even be a drop in the bucket at this point. (I might even settle for a T-38 too…) Thanks! 🙏

The next vlog just dropped and there’s more weather, more icing, more IFR aerobatics, and our first high density altitude landing on an Alpine-length runway:

We got the L-39 put together in 9 days to get to Oshkosh, but then we had to get home -- 1300 miles in a fighter jet with no autopilot and no deice. Weather, icing, diverts, and spatial disorientation, this vlog's got it all: youtu.be/93XmEcoIe-8

Just in case you’re curious, a little over a year ago The FAA officially changed the 74yr old NOTAM acronym from “Notice To Airman” to “Notice To Air Missions” to be more inclusive.
🤡
Maybe that energy would have been better spent on robusting the actual system?? #GoWokeGoBroke

Oshkosh is all about airplanes, and the Grumman Widgeon is one of the coolest out there, so I had to try one of the couple dozen of these flying boats still flying: youtu.be/ZhH03g7aIiA

Essentially all of the hot takes on the tragedy in Dallas are certainly wrong and part of why speculating on accidents is silly and counterproductive. Let the experts figure it out and the families grieve in peace. 🤦♂️

Absurdly unfair
Free money for folks who didn’t pay their bills & no relief for the working stiffs who didn’t get to go to college (or the ones who worked second jobs to pay off their debts!)
this is simply buying votes
No more stimulus! Inflation!!! We’re broke! twitter.com/nytimes/status

It continues to drive me crazy that our conversations about college are focused entirely on one-time debt relief, with zero discussion of how to actually drive down costs.
We'll be doing this all over again in five years from now
