The extinction of the dinosaurs is technically the highest ratio of birds killed with one stone.

@bikemamadelphia Looks like there is at least 36" to the right.

@AlexCTaliadoros Can we just enjoy the 250th without complaining about everything? It was going to be a big - and expensive - celebration, no matter the president.

@ajlamesa I think in practice the two-by-two seating is rarely used by two strangers. People will be apt to use all of the perimeter seats since you don't have to ask someone to move to get out. The seat count is down by eight per car - a good tradeoff.

Cockpit video from our opening flyover of @Freedom250 last night.

Thank you America for all that you are and all that you will be. Thank you for trusting me.

I'll have more to say about it later. My college roommate and one of my best friends Joe Pitts was on my wing for this one.

God Bless America and long live The Republic.

We’re getting our first detailed look at what the future Metro 8000 series trains will look like! New features include open gangways connecting pairs of trains, lights on the floor, more electronic signs, & more seats against the wall like on the New York City subway. #wmata

B-2 and F-35 flyover in DC.

[Andrew Leyden @PenguinSix]

A tentative flyover schedule was shown to the press for the tonight's Great State Fair event. All times are estimates.

7:30 F-16s
7:35 B-2
8:05 F-35s
8:25 B-2 & F-35s
9:00 F-35s

The flyovers will alternate directions, first W->E and then S->N, etc.

Great intro in this New York Times piece on the Tartan Army.

New, seemingly - at least partially - functional @wmata 8000 series prototype.

@DCMetroMaker @wmata Also, I think those are new 8000 mockups. The ones from 2024 were not full 75' cars.

[C @ckovdc]

@DCMetroMaker @wmata I wonder why there are no Metro logos on either set?

[C @ckovdc]

@garyleff @jasonrayblake @American I find pre-departure beverages have been served consistency since fall 2025.

@AaronParnas @MeidasTouch This was for fireworks in Alexandria.
