Last trijet: NW 722 February, 2002 operated by N285US MEM-MCO.
Last quad: Northwest Airlink ARJ-85 ROC-DTW. I still can't believe this was the only quad I've ever flown.
December 7, 1997 NW 432 DTW-MCO operated by N311US. In an interesting twist my cousin would also take NW432 down to MCO a few days later but was on a 722.
Jump to postAt around 10:45 today there was a high altitude aircraft or two making smile faces over Rochester and started to write something in the sky as well. After taking some photos and videos my phone battery died just as I was ready to jump over to FR24. Does anyone know what that was about?
Jump to postHey XAMTO, How did you get the Lynx access panel? A 1/72 scale Royal Navy Lynx was the first ever helicopter model I built as a child. Long gone now though. I wish that more countries would buy the Wildcat… Take care Bunumuring Hi Bunumuring, I purchased the panel through Jet Blast Aviation on eBay...

In 2005 I was originally booked to fly IAH-LAS on a America West Express CRJ 900 prior to changing in LAS continuing on to SEA.

Good evening everyone, I just purchased a Sony Air 8 off of eBay and the instructions were not enclosed so I can't figure out how to program it. I looked online for user manuals but only seemed to find servicing manuals available. Any help is appreciated!

I flew VJ in July 1997 round trip CAK-ATL-MCO just before their merger with AirTran and the operation at that time seemed to improve somewhat. One thing I remember was they had AirTran flight attendants working alongside ValuJet FAs presumably to familiarize them to the DC9.
