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.
