The Magnificant Young Man and His Flying Machine

N367HP has just crossed the coastline of the south of France with two hours and five minutes to go before his landing in Rome.

Matt, left Biggin Hill Airport in London this morning after a flight plan change because Biggin Hill closes early on Sundays. He had to fly a modified flight plan from the Azores to South London Sunday, then ferry over to Biggin Hill later in the day on Monday. He is, however, back on this planned itinerary and will be in Italy early evening.

The cloud image appeared right over the Southwest Airlines Headquarters Maintenance Operations Building. I've seen a lot of cloud formations over the years but never something that could be compared to an Italian painter 500 years ago.










 

General Aviation

General Aviation has its ups and downs. [ (C) dallaspaparazzo.com ] [R] All puns aside, general aviation is a great business. So, I have designed a few business products for general aviation use. They will soon appear in the store section. If you are a fixed base operatror,manage a flight school or operate a general aviation service and would like to know more, email the blog. There is an actual US Postage stamp in the works on the Zazzle brand for general aviation. If it gets approved, we'll let everone know.

American has just been American but for a longer period of time.Then there is Southwest where 40 years of Luv continues on all four sides of Love Field and other cities were SW goes.

Today was Musuem Day to the affiliates of the Smithsonian. The crowds were orderly but festive and the new Southwest exhibit of aircraft tail number N300W was open. In June, the plane was just being positioned with its nose inside the Frontiers of Flight Museum (the rest of the Boeing 737 is outside the museum on the tarmac).
