Hello, let me introduce myself! I am a recent Instrument Rated pilot ASEL with a decent background in mil-aviation. Attempting to fly large aircraft for anyone willing to hire a 33 y/o. This is the start of my aviation blogging journey, while I wait to be hired. Come follow 🤙🏼

Tonight I have soup at my table w/ AC. Tonight someone is playing the worst version of camping in a place that avidly wants to destroy them. I cannot explain the absolute unconditional respect I have for any military pilot who wears this flag knowing the risks 🇺🇸 God Pls Protect

[InfantryDort @infantrydort]

A key lesson for civilians to take away from this.

Search and rescue, MEDEVAC pilots, really any job that goes in with the specific task of saving other warfighters.

They will fly into actual hell to save you unless someone orders them not to.

And they still might go anyway.

Imagine if every aircraft required public air refueling 👀😵‍💫 what a nightmare scenario to imagine. 😂 ✈️ ⛽

FAR Part 91.151: Fuel Req'd for VFR Flight (fixed wing) ✈️

Enough fuel to fly "to the first point of intended landing" & 30 mins of normal cruise (Day) or 45 mins (Night).

*This takes into consideration forecasted winds and weather planning.

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

Fairly easy information to remember for my first FAR post, I'd guess most don't deliberately leave the field without the proper amount of fuel. Either a measuring issue physically or an issue to plan properly against atmospherics/performance data/inaccurate models.

🚨 BREAKING: The United States Heritage Air Force Squadron has just announced plans to resurrect a Convair B-36 from the Boneyard and restore it to full flying condition 🇺🇸✈️ The legendary "Peacemaker" will take to the skies once again as part of America’s 250th anniversary celebration, culminating in a massive airshow this September at Brookley Air Force Base, Alabama.

Sources say it may be the loudest comeback in aviation history.

History isn’t just being remembered… it’s about to fly again.

I am so happy to see a safe launch and a safe entry into space. Congrats Crew and NASA for a bunch of hard work and 'great success!' 🚀 🌌

[NASA @NASA]

For the first time in over 50 years, humans are Moonbound.

At 6:35 p.m. EDT (2235 UTC) NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and the Orion spacecraft lifted off from the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, sending four astronauts on a planned test flight around the Moon and back. https://t.co/0Q9ZB4IWVI

It is actually wild to see this unfold in this way. If I was playing devils advocate from my previous post, this undermines the lower echelons and the move to delegate control and risk acceptance to lower unit levels. It shouldn't have been a suspension from the beginning, tbf.

🚨 PETE HEGSETH JUST POSTED THE SUSPENSION OF US ARMY APACHE PILOTS WHO FLEW NEAR KID ROCK’S HOUSE IS OFFICIALLY LIFTED!

“Thank you Kid Rock. US Army pilots suspension LIFTED. No punishment. No investigation. Carry on, patriots!”

🫳🏼🎤

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

@AngryCops I said the same thing, I've seen far more dangerous stuff done with much less outcry. Hurts the legitimacy of our aviation standards by being heavy handed during 'bad press' per say. Political or not, probably could of been handled 'internally' without a public suspension.

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

5/ Welp, finishing up my beer and my observations, so follow me if you want some FAR/AIM random posts and maybe some unique conversations. Cheers 🤙🏼

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

As I build my page, I hope to see more unique situations like this to add my opinion. As always, just a random person's opinion, but I think things like this allow for conversation to begin about how aircrew are a unique breed intertwined in the "professional" career world 1/

[Breaking Aviation News & Videos @aviationbrk]

The U.S Army has suspended the aircrew who flew AH-64 Apache helicopters by Kid Rock's house over the weekend, a U.S. official said Tuesday.

The Army said the AH-64 Apaches were conducting a training route past the Nashville area, where the country rock artist's hilltop estate is located.

Kid Rock, a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, posted the footage to social media on Saturday of himself gesturing to the aircraft from his outdoor pool.

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

4/ Maybe if cameras weren't in every hand, this wouldn't of resulted as a suspension, but I guess the Army doesn't want the publicity. At least 'the kid' has a good story

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

3/ I hate seeing dangerous acts, but as I watch this, I question if a suspension is warranted. I'm a fixed-wing guy and I know the flexibility the helos have. It's hard for me to justify, besides public privacy, why the crew should be taken out of a flying role, even if temporary

[➰JB's Crumbs🔜 @AircraftCrumbs]

2/ There's a fine line in the public eye that aircrew can perform something as 'fun', maybe potentially dangerous, before they are sidelined by the Bobs in the field. Whether that's military leadership or a Charlie-board in a company.

These are medium-intensity red aviation obstruction lights, called L-864, used to mark tall structures for aircraft safety.

They flash 20–40 times per minute, meet FAA/ICAO standards, and offer infrared visibility options.

✈️ Runway Lighting Systems ✈️
Runway and approach lighting systems ensure safe landings and takeoffs, especially in low visibility.
Here's an overview:
1/ Simple Approach and Runway Lighting System
Features：
Basic lighting with centerline and threshold lights.
Includes PAPI lights for glide path guidance.
Purpose :
• Aids visual alignment for the runway in normal conditions.

2/ CAT I Approach and Runway Lighting System
Features:
Starter Extension lights for takeoff.
Yellow caution zone lights near the stopway.
Stopway lights to define usable limits.
Purpose:
Enables safe operations in lower visibility conditions.

3/ CAT I & CAT Ill Approach and Runway Lighting System
Features:
Touchdown Zone lights for precise landings.
Runway End and Centreline Lights for guidance.
Supplementary Approach Lights for extreme low visibility.
Color coded Centreline for better orientation.
Purpose:
Supports operations during fog, heavy rain, or nighttime landings.
