Fellow flight instructors - I'm looking to pick up my own handheld radio. It would mainly be for student solos, but a backup radio is always a good idea. What's worked well for you?

There’s nothing like a little aerial leaf-spotting! 👨🏻‍✈️ ✈️ ⛰ 🍁 🍂 #avgeek #pilot #flying #aviation

Maybe we will be the UFOs (UAPs) some day. This is an incremental step in a long journey. Ad Astra

I’ve always been curious about spending a couple of days at Jack Brown’s Seaplane Base to get a seaplane rating. Now, I REALLY want to get down there! https://t.co/jZjHL2EE99

[🛫Sean🛬 @AviaSean]

Really excited at the prospect of an opportunity that would have me using this account quite a bit more. I’d appreciate any good vibes y’all could send my way!

While approaching a pothole once, I had to remind myself that turning the steering wheel right would not raise the left side of my car to let the tire pass over it without incident.

When I approach a yellow light that I know I won't be able to slow down for in time, I always say "V1" out loud and firewall it.

I’ll add that I have it on a kneeboard - not mounted anywhere

Pilots who use iPads in the cockpit: What's the best way to avoid overheating the device when it's in the sunlight? I've seen cases that include cooling fans. Does that work? Any other tips? @chrisclarkefly @rodrakic @evan_schoo

Busy day at @slcairport!

@boeingboundbri It was around 7,300’. Not the greatest climb performance!

[🛫Sean🛬 @AviaSean]

I love seeing a student start to build confidence in the airplane! Hot, but pretty day over Utah yesterday. 👨🏻‍✈️ ✈️

FYI: Horizon Line is even worse than the trailer suggests, but somehow still sort of entertaining.

[🛫Sean🛬 @AviaSean]

@NSAfollow Congrats, that’s awesome! 👏 Hoping the rebound can be swift.

One year ago today, I got my job as a part-time flight instructor...just in time for the pandemic to shift the landscape of the aviation world. I feel so lucky to have gotten that job when I see the CFIs across the country looking for work now. Brighter days are coming! 👨🏻‍✈️✈️
