It won't be long before the Asiana brand is retired. Nice to see the brand and colors on one of their A350s at ICN. #avgeek

First of 3 days of college visits. I'm crazy, so we're doing 7 flights to visit 3 universities in MA, PA and MD. Last night wasn't off to a great start with back to back delays on BNA-DTW-BDL. Landed in BDL at 2 am and now we're driving to down Amherst, MA and back before flying BDL-DTW-PIT later.

Flying DTW-BDL in the early hours of the morning.

Here are some photos from my trip last week. Lots of progress on the Nashville (BNA) concourse A rebuild. A shot taken on approach into Atlanta (ATL) and a coastal shot on departure out of Fort Lauderdale (FLL). #avgeek #bna #atl #fll

I flew CUA (pictured below and now at the Ashburton Aviation Museum) a lot, an early PA28-140. No one else liked it because it has the trim on the ceiling, but it meant it was always available and it became my favourite single for VFR.

ZK-CUA at the Ashburnton Aviation Museum.

My first landing in a 172 was into Milford Sound in NZ. I flew into Wanaka in a Piper and an instructor I knew asked if I wanted to do a quick flight into Milford. What a great experience and that's when I learnt how slow an approach could be in a high wing.

Delta needs to up their livery game IMHO. They have a lot of history and could use some pretty exciting retro tails. #avgeek #delta

A short 6 hours 35 mins in flight from DTW to LHR this evening. Lots of turbulence is expected, so they're going to do an express service. #avgeek

The old Concourse A at BNA is official in the history books. The new Concourse, due to be completed by July of 2028 will be a 16 gate facility and will hopefully have some additional lounge space (looking at you, United). Post completion, Nashville will have 70 gates. #nashville #avgeek

Just landed in Atlanta from Ft Lauderdale. A couple of hours in the Skyclub and then heading home to Nashville. This club overlooks the B concourse. A couple of 757-200s and a 717 tail to the right. #avgeek

Just boarded in Orlando and heading home via Atlanta. The good news is I'll be home before the snow and ice start. The bad news is the forecast for ice keeps increasing.
