May 13, 2009 - SCX8702 rockets off of runway 20R at the start of a 1-hour charter flight to Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport (KGPT) in Mississippi.

 

This aircraft has a somewhat interesting past with Sun Country...

 

Ship 710 was Sun Country's first -700 series 737 and was delivered new by Boeing in late 2001. Shortly after delivery of this bird, Sun Country went in to bankruptcy - leaving this brand new aircraft sitting on their ramp in Minneapolis (KMSP) and still awaiting it's first ever revenue flight with an airline.

 

Sun Country leased this aircraft to Air Berlin, which obviously led to the removal of the brand new paint that only had a few empty ferry flights logged on it.

 

Air Berlin operated this aircraft until early 2008. The aircraft was also operated in Europe by Air Astana (P4-CAS) and easyJet (G-EZJI).

 

It is interesting to see her back with Sun Country and wearing her original livery once again....

Again, Rwys 20 and 17 as winds are from the south.

A quick 23 minutes on the flip-flop.

I finally inspected the K185 flight log from the computer in the Firestorm54 rocket. This was a long-burn motor launched in the Black Rock Desert at BALLS.

 

Red is acceleration and Blue is altitude over time, in seconds, on the x-axis.

 

The booster burned for 4.9 seconds, providing 10.6 Gs of acceleration, and reaching a top speed of 725 MPH. At this altitude, it was .98 Mach, and continued to climb for 25.3 seconds.

 

I am impressed with the RockSim rocket simulation software. Before the flight, it predicted a peak airspeed, maximum acceleration, and time to apogee that were 98% of actual measured values.

 

I have not uploaded the launch photo for this one, but it looks pretty similar to the K550 (but with the nose cone on!) and the J350 launches.

For a little assistance in understanding the direction of the previous two photos.

Off 24. Turnaround put total time at almost 7 hours.

A Rwy 24 arrival, over Laguna de Bay.

Time to take off again and Oh fuck what fuck the actual fucking fuck

The big bank left on my return home was not wind but me chasing a boat.

Räyskälä, June 2011

A page from Charles Leonard's flight log from 1920. Charles Leonard was stationed at Chanute Field as Commanding Officer, among many other positions. While at Chanute, Leonard logged 244 hours of flight.

 

One of those flights nearly ended in tragedy. On April 29, 1921, 5,000 thousand citizens of Ottawa, Canada patiently waited for two planes to arrive from Rantoul. They gathered to see the new and innovative flying machines of the U.S. military, which were sent to Ottawa on a recruiting mission. One of the planes arrived on time two hours after taking off at 9 a.m. The other plane was unaccounted for until it was discovered that the pilot, Charles Leonard, crashed his Curtiss Jenny. Leonard, in an effort to impress, took a young lady onboard the flight to show off his aerial skills. Leonard took the plane to approximately 4,000 feet and did a spiraling nose-dive toward the earth. After making the sensational dive, Leonard made a daring attempt to pull the nose of the plane up close to the ground but failed and crashed into the soft dirt. Both passengers survived with minor injuries.

Getting to pass over The Spa on Port Royal Sound where my family had a condo during my childhood through my teen years. We were in a unit right next to those tennis courts

I set camera to panorama and flipped through 5 slides in my "Pima Air and Space Museum" album. See if you can find the 5 consecutive slides here: www.flickr.com/photos/quasidogo/sets/72157634976151824

Oh fucks, I made this same mistake at an airport in Japan too, turning off what I thought was a taxiway towards maintenance/emergency facilities

Is that... windsock... fucks sake yes it's pointed away from me so I'm taking off with a tail wind. Good job, ATC. Well it's not much of one and plenty of runway I should be fine

the moon starts to redden as it sets into the thicker haze on the horizon. Passing over Long Branch now with Rt. 36 snaking westwards

Oh fuck hell what is this thing with wanting to dip a wing on landing all the time?!

Oops was using out of date nav data and after changing freq was able to pickup the VOR and localizer

Oh no oh crap oh fuck shit shitshitshitshit

oh FUCK that cliff I pass over throws off some nasty turbulence!

Taxiing to the runway and at first I think the sock is backwards until I check my compass and realize oops, I started at the north end of the field. In my head I thought I was hangared at the south end of the field

Contacting ATC for flight following, which in my book gives me "go wherever the fuck you want" privileges

Taxiing out at last. Conditions off in the direction I'm heading don't look promising but I'm going to give it a shot. Flight sim - fuck around and find out!

James Clark Barrett - Aviators Flight Log Book

Lt. James Clark Barrett received the Distinguished Flying Cross for scoring a direct hit on a Japanese cruiser during the Battle of Midway on June 6, 1942. His Logbook is open at the Midway entries.

Oops in my boredom of playing with switches and poking around the cockpit I accidentally triggered the manual gear switch. Thankfully cruise speeds are still below max gear extension speeds and they didn't fully deploy anyways

Fucks sake everything messing up now after that perfect departure - transponder resets to 7000 for some reason. I switch it back to 1200. However now that I think about it 7000 would have been correct since I'm no longer in Australia. Derp

Full reverse and still almost ran out of runway. Phew! Dammit I did not manage to turn off YD before landing. Oh well - such a great start to the flight no wonder I managed to fuck it up so much in the end

Doing a stall check - yup I heard the horn and my speedo needle did not move - pitot tube frozen. Good to know

Climb! Climb! Trying not to drop below a safe maneuvering speed while pushing at full throttle to get over this ridge - thin air sucks!

After a weekend of flying I spend an hour or so on a Monday morning filling in my log book and company invoice using the notes from my flight log sheets.

All accompanied by an essential mug of tea.

#49 On the Table for 52 in 2022 challenge

Flight log book used during the battle of Midway by Lt. Earl Gallagher, commanding officer of Scouting Squadron 6. After the battle he reported a direct hit on the center of the flight deck, 200 feet from the stern, of a Kaga or Akagi class carrier.

Fucks sake I'm still too high really?!

GOT7 "FLY" PHOTOS #2 #GOT7 #FLIGHT_LOG #DEPARTURE #Fly

Passing over Brookdale Community College, where I spent some time on a CS degree then a Business degree before saying "fuck this college shit". No regrets

Successfully located the Cerro Las Tetas, obviously a popular rock climbing destination
