Tonight we were wondering why nobody had identified the flight which caused the UK air traffic control crash so we worked it out. It was FBU (French Bee) 731 from LAX/KLAX to ORY/LFPO.
It passed two waypoints called DVL on its expanded flight plan: Devil's Lake, Wisconsin, US, and Deauville, Normandy, FR (an intermediate on airway UN859).
So a while back I shared what it takes to land at O'Hare in my little plane, but what about what it takes to get back out? Well it may be a bit more than you might think. For all my #avgeek, #aviation, and #pilot folks:
Captured both aircraft of the Growler Demo Team in vapor cone, Sunday at Airshow London. This was a completely lucky combination of drive speed and when I chose to begin shooting; this fleeting moment lasted a fraction of a second. #AviationPhotography#avgeek#airshow
General Dynamics F-16CJ Fighting Falcon pair at Warbirds Over Wanaka. This was the Practice Day flypast, they otherwise operated single-ship from Christchurch. #AvGeek#Aviation
I don't normally love white on an aircraft, but there something very clean about this one, and the very light gray palm tree on the tail was just "chef's kiss"!!
Apologies for the "back-lighting" - they were firing up the engines and safety says "stay where you are".
