Re: Flying during Coronavirus on American & Delta
I'm impressed with the bag that DL provided. Great TR. I'm sure some of those sights at normally-bustling airports like ORD and PHX were eerie.

On top of that, the differences you see could also be caused by the color settings on the camera that took the photo, or whatever corrections the photographer made when processing the image in Lightroom. Can confirm, I changed up the hue a little bit in Photoshop on the 77W. And thanks for the plug...

Re: Priority Screening Inconsistency
I'm with ya. I had a shot of several AA 787s parked at TUL that was deprioritized and rejected. To be fair, it did get rejected for other reasons as well. I think all COVID-related aviation occurrences should qualify for priority screening, but maybe that's just me.

We keep thinking we've seen the last of her at XNA, but our daily A319s are frequently subbed out for them. Next Saturday's (8/31) flight is quite likely going to be her last visit to our airport, and it's going to be bittersweet spotting her out here for the very last time.
