On final for 28C at ORD yesterday

A photo taken from inside a commercial airplane looking out and down towards the Chicago shoreline and city. The window is almost in full view as I was sitting in the middle seat

See ya, @specter177.bsky.social!

One of yesterday’s Hot Ones questions was “if you could do a Ted Talk about any subject what would it be?” Mine is titled “Why the Airbus A319 is the most adorable plane ever”

A mostly white twin engine commercial airplane resting at a gate. The side of the fuselage says “UNITED” in blue lettering with blue engines and vertical stabilizer to match. There are a few vehicles surrounding the plane. The plane has its cargo door open. The sky has some puffy gray and white clouds floating by

A retro was taking off before us!

The fireworks never stop in Chicago!

Now that I look less like a crazy person since my locs were super stiff after getting them cut and retwisted, here’s a little look. Embracing my gigantic forehead 😂

Awkward selfie of me from behind showing how long my locs were. Basically almost down to my butt

A selfie of me showcasing my now short locs that are above my ears. Hat tan to match

Maybe try Windows Default system scheme, or (none)?

To that Skyhawk I see taking off at DFW - I see you, diva

Yesterday was such a beautiful day to fly Day time maneuver practice with another CFI, night time XC to MKE with my former CFI #avgeek

The view from inside a small general aviation airplane looking out to the left. The white wing, white strut, and tire can be seen. Below is a river and a lot of greenery as far as the eye can see. The sky is an amazingly clear blue

The view from inside a small general aviation airplane looking out to the left. It's nighttime in the photo - City lights line the earth below. The wing and strut are in view nearer the left side of the image, and the plane's glass cockpit can be seen reflecting in the upper right hand

A bunch of us will be at this airport in a few weeks... Can't wait

A screenshot from MSFS2024 showing a single prop airplane banking to the right as seen from the side. Part of the belly is showing with the left wing up. Below is water and lots of greenery, as well as OSH airport. The sky is a very clear blue - not a cloud in sight

Womp womp

A screenshot from flightradar24 with a satellite image of a map. There is a single red highlighted digital plane depicting a real flight with a mostly blue to purple flight path following behind it. It originally left ORD about 2 hours and 30 minutes ago with a destination of JFK, did a holding pattern over the New York/Pennsylvania border, then decided to turn back to ORD

That's what I thought

Rooting for that 4% for yall lmao. Suffering in solidarity, though the humidity is soooo much less than it was yesterday and the day before lol

The weather showing that it’s 96F, feels like 105F, and 43% humidity

Kendall 🛩️@tacotuesgay· Jul 1

So I made an interesting discovery recently. Whenever I am igniting the range it will make my work computer sound like it’s connecting or disconnecting a device

How about a lil steep turn to the right image from my last lesson #studentpilot

A screenshot from a video of myself performing a steep turn to the right in an airplane. Ideally I am banking at a 45 degree angle, but who knows cus it doesn't even show the attitude indicator in the snippet despite my CFI saying I did well. The sky has streaks of white clouds that can be seen in the upper left hand corner extending diagonally to the upper right and lower left hand corners of the image. The greenery of the earth is about the same, but lower. Part of the instrument panel of the plane is visibly banking to the right along with the rest of the image

So funny seeing all the hate filled comments from yesterday's live-stream of the Chicago Pride Parade.. And yet, there they are willingly watching it 🤷‍♂️ Anyway, here's me in low resolution marching proudly with my local NGPA chapter sandwiched between United and American! 🏳️‍🌈

A screenshot from CBS5 Chicago's livestream of the pride parade. Many people are standing on the sidewalks while a parade flows through the middle. I have circled myself with a hopefully useful red circle

Happy Pride from your local Chicago student pilot and a avgeek!

A photo of my standing in front of an inflatable airplane that is sitting in the bed of a truck. I am smiling and holding a wrestling belt with the following engraved on it:

Windy City Flyers
National Gay Pilots Association
NGPA local chapter

It has the Chicago flag on the left and the LGBTQ flag on the right

A photo of people walking down the middle of the road decorated in various rainbow outfits. One is directly in front waving a rainbow flag and is wearing a pilot shirt with rainbow epaulettes made from hair ties

First 172 flight in the books. What a world of a difference in airplanes that what I am used to flying, but I definitely see why everyone likes them #avgeek

The view out of the left hand side of a general aviation airplane. The left wing and strut is in view with tons of greenery and housing below

The view from inside a general aviation airplane looking out towards the propeller. The sky has a few white clouds against the blue sky, and down below is more greenery

Kendall 🛩️@tacotuesgay· Jun 26

My first ever night flight experience! My (sadly former) CFI hit me up and we were going to XC until that very rude cloud layer impeded on our plans. Still had a nice little flight WNW of Chicago and saw pretty lights and fireworks. An entirely different game at night #avgeek

Kendall 🛩️@tacotuesgay· Jun 25

very glad I spent almost 2 hours of my life doing this flight..... For this lol
