DLD 394: Farnborough Follow-up

The image shows a view from an airplane window, capturing the wing and engine of the plane in the foreground. On the runway below, there is a large white cargo airplane with the word "Cargolux" written on its side. The background includes airport buildings, vehicles, and other infrastructure. The scene appears to be at an airport with multiple runways and taxiways.

Despite being one of the slowest major air shows for new order announcements in years, Farnborough 2022 offered plenty of news.

DLD 391: Some Independence thinking

A long, narrow causeway stretches out into the sea, partially submerged by water. The causeway is made of concrete tiles and is flanked by seaweed-covered rocks and shallow water. In the distance, a few people are walking along the causeway. A tall, thin pole stands on a stone base to the left of the causeway. The sky is overcast, and the overall scene appears calm and serene. The image is credited to @WandrMe.

Great news: The holiday weekend wasn’t a total meltdown, despite warnings from airlines.

DLD 270: Thanksgiving travel is crazy. Literally.

The image shows a small, colorful pavilion with a prayer wheel inside, set against a mountainous backdrop. Above the pavilion, a string of prayer flags in various colors (blue, white, red, green, and yellow) is strung across the sky. The mountains are covered with trees and have rocky outcrops, and the sky is clear and blue. The scene appears to be serene and peaceful, likely in a Himalayan region.

Flying on Thanksgiving Weekend can be a crazy experience. But this year it seems someone took one of those idiotic “how to get upgraded for free” stories a bit further than they probably should have.
