Petersburg James A. Johnson PAPG β†’ Juneau International PAJN

Did you know Juneau is Alaska’s capital? I totally didn’t: had my money on Anchorage 😳 Never too old to learn something new!

The RNAV approach here is quite interesting. It gets you close to the airport, but the final leg has to be flown visually, after a 15Β° right turn to line up with the runway.

I cycled from Strathyre to Killin this week, and while stopped to take my usual photo of the Glen Ogle viaduct, I saw the sky was putting on a better show to my left. I love the shapes clouds can make.

#cirrus successfully launched on Wednesday! Our test-flight reached an altitude of about 36km and was successfully recovered shortly after landing. And we even recorded the #balloon bursting with one of the cameras on board!
Northwest Regional Airport Terrace-Kitimat CYXT β†’ Stewart Aerodrome CZST

What a dramatic light today! At least for the first half of the flight. After that, it got hazier and darker with much less contrasts.

Stewart Aerodrome is approached visually and sits in a valley, so there’s not much room for the turn after the downwind. The Vision Jet probably isn’t one of the usual aircrafts seen here ;-)

I can’t seem to get two of my latest Pixelfed posts to show up on Mastodon side so here they are. I really liked these two images so I want them to be seen as far and wide as possible, even if they are just quick silly snaps of mine. πŸ˜…
