Very little just here and there doing some contract work for a couple corporate operators in the area. This whole recession/depression thing is no fun. Trying to find just any job I can right now, flying or not, and even that's not going well.

Well it seems that BA cabin crew may be too stupid to live. In this economic climate, when they are paid 40% more than other crew from Heathrow rivals, they want to strike because BA want to reduce crew costs and have a two year pay freeze.

I think his days of spreading his nuts around were over when he said "I do".

J Gibson ... I don't fly, no. I shared your dream but medical held me out. Asthma and scholiosis (however you spell it) did me in. I also turned to civil aviation but decided I'd just take pics if I couldn't "have it all" ha ha. So now I take pics wherever I end up. I grew up around aircraft though so I end up around them a lot. My dad's been a pilot his whole life and now works for the FAA ... He's a good guy though, ha ha. I'm working on my degree at BSU. I'm a senior here now and will most likely relocate to Colorado next in aobut 14 months or so with my wife to get grad degrees.
Here's how I spent my day today ...

Nice C-130 pics, the first one, by the way. Love the lighting.
