Aviator90 and ORBX= Pure Awesome

I asked John, ‘Would it be possible to use your yet to be released Pacific North West scenery as the backgrop for Aviator90’?

One Six Right

Tonight Trevor shared with me the link to a film (legally shared and hosted) that really touches my heart when it comes to aviation.

My experience with A&Ps (airframe and powerplant certified mechanics) is that they are very professional, almost always thorough, and do a great job. They are usually finding a lot more things wrong than a pilot would see on the surface.

As the autopilot took me the rest of the way, I just watch in awe as the horizon turned from black, to a deep red, then to a light orange witha purplish sky. So still, smooth and breathtaking. I couldn’t believe my eyes and took in every last ounce of the rising sun.

I thank God for moments like this. There is no other way to say it. It is moments like this that I just love being a pilot. But during these times I can’t help but reflect back on my own personal journey and realize that it’s been a road that hasn’t always been easy, but the moments like this sure make it worth it.
