Hi all,

Well I’ve been working my but off, back after being off for two weeks. I was able to get a lot done around the house, albeit with a nasty sinus infection over week one; I don’t know if I mentioned that I’m putting in our backyard on my own, but that’s another story.. This trip I’m on has taken me all over the west/mid-western US and now I’m up in Canada… We’ve been hit with an especially busy thunderstorm period on this trip and it’s created delays and a heavy additional work load- Not fun.

But I’ve got a great crew and besides that what more could a Captain ask for???
(Maybe just clear skies but I guess in life, like in flying, clear skies are just not a guarantee).

I plan on getting Episode #9 out ASAP.. Problem is that I work a 4 gone / 2 home schedule for the rest of this month, so as it is, life on my days at home is going to be busy enough !!!

Anyway, I’m looking forward to telling you all about the cool things I’ve researched on the DreamLiner, which I think you’ll find as interesting as I did.

Fly Safe

This Antonov An-124 was at LAX on June 2nd, 2007. For what reason, I don’t know. Link to Wikipedia Article on the Antonov_An-124

You couldn’t ask for a better morning in San Francisco. Bright sun, a light breeze, & clear skies. Calm, cool and crisp, just the way I like it here. We start flying this afternoon, and I’ll be back home on the west coast late tonight. My plan is to get Episode 8 out tomorrow. I’ve got some good stuff to go in it:

- 787 DreamLiner: First Real Pics
- Barrington Irving’s World Flight Adventure
- More on Whitmore International Airport
- MD-88 Uncontained Fan Blade
- Kid’s Tantrum Causes Plane to Make Emergency Landing- My Thoughts
- NTSB tells the FAA to take a closer look at Pilot Medicals
- 7… 6 Count ‘Em Six Killer Aviation Videos
