⚡🟠 #Aviation marker balls are bright orange spheres clamped onto high-voltage power lines near #airports and #valleys.
They don’t carry #electricity or improve transmission – they simply make thin wires visible to low-flying pilots. Installed by #helicopter crews, each ball is about the size of a beach ball and lasts 10-15 years.

Did The Russians Shoot Down Their Helicopter?
The crew is probably dead.
Russian military aviation has allegedly suffered losses again. There have been no official comments from the Russian Defense Ministry and state media on the matter, but information about the incident has appeared in Russian Z-channels.

Soaring Blackhawk
A Blackhawk helicopter passed by one day, and I caught it as a near‑perfect silhouette against the clouds.

The Boeing 737-800W is characterized by its blended winglets, optimized for reduced drag and improved fuel efficiency across medium-haul operations. Its elongated fuselage, advanced aerodynamic surfaces, and refined control geometry contribute to stable handling and consistent performance. B737-800W 1/500 - SLA, 2025-06-25, the front landing gear of this model has been thickened, but I still uploaded the fuselage with the previous landing gear. And the fuselage that is not in the center does not need to be fixed, but I uploaded the two wings that have been exported without moving their positions. Here’s what each label means: - FDM: Printed on an FDM machine. These versions have lower detail, no panel lines, no engine blades, and use thicker walls. - SLA 1: Printed on an SLA machine. These include antennas, include engine blades, have thinner walls, but still do not have panel lines. - SLA 2: Same as SLA 1, but with added panel lines for higher surface detail.
Canada: "Healing through grief: Why moving through loss builds resilience"

So help me, "future-copters" or whatever you call these craft *are so cool*. As is the whole idea of a parachutist diving off of one. What's the story here? Honestly I never gave it much thought, but in the meantime, you can still enjoy my painting of "A moonslit airdrop".
