Hi @toddzwillich.bsky.social : I don't know if this is an acceptable way to submit an entry to this week's @wamu.org 1A News Quiz, but the answer is, of course, a reading from the Book of Genesis. This really resonated with me, so I made this short video tribute back in December of 2020.

At first, I’m thinking it would be a little spooky having it back there, wouldn’t it? 😳 That said, it’s not a lot different than more conventional designs like the Lake Amphibian, for example.

A very nice @io-aerospace.bsky.social Gates Learjet 35A, registration N51NW, takes off from runway 17 at Springbank Airport this afternoon. Perhaps the flight was to test out their new RSM 300mm Shutterless Lens optical system? | 🛩️ 📹 📍 🇨🇦 | 🧵 1/2 | 🔗 io-aerospace.com/io-aerospace...

So, @nba.com All-Star this weekend. | 🏀 (📹 Seinfeld)

I usually post this video on Christmas Eve, but with the sad news of naval aviator, test pilot, and astronaut Jim Lovell having gone west, it's entirely appropriate to post it today. This world very much needs more Jim Lovell, not less. | 🌎 🚀 🌖

An unexpected visit from an Embraer 'Praetor 500' at Springbank yesterday afternoon. Turns out it was simply waiting for an empty slot at CYYC, so they could reposition when one was available later in the evening. So question for Air Sprint, the aircraft's operator: when … | 🛩️ 📍 🇨🇦 | 🧵 1/3

Seems about right. (📹 'The Rocketeer' via Yarn)

Things are finally winding down for the holiday, so there was time for a mid-week trip to Springbank. Managed to capture this tidy Cessna Citation CJ2 departing for warmer climes. I do like it when a pilot, like this one, taxis with purpose. | 🛩️ 📹 📍 🇨🇦

Don't get me wrong, I love a Bell 212 as much as anybody—particularly that cinematic sound—but I think we can also agree the real star of this video is that sky, don't you think? The mountains are also pretty nice. 😉 Captured at Springbank last week. | 🛩️ 🚁 📹 📍 🇨🇦 | 🔗 lrhelicopters.com/aircraft/?ut...

If the exquisite 'Praetor 500' in my previous Springbank post represents one end of the General Aviation spectrum, then this 'Bird Dog' likely represents the other; the one warbird I would have a fighting chance of flying with my measly ~100 hours of flight experience. | 🛩️ 📹 ⚔️ 📍 🇨🇦
