A selection of just some of the last week of interviews I've attended, represented in the medium of the lapel pin. By the time these are added to my office cork-board I think I'm well on my way to my own airshow lineup. Also my first eVTOL pin (thanks Lilium!) #avgeek #FIA2024

Likening a recent experiment to "like playing battleships in the sky" with clouds - I caught up with the FAAM Airborne Laboratory to learn about their uniquely configured BAe 146 (also the only -301 variant in existence): #avgeek #aviation aerospaceglobalnews.com/news/supportin…

Jumping on the #Oasis25 hype - yours truly "feeling supersonic" and deciding to "roll with it" at Mach 1.3 (definitely needed "a gin and tonic" after this one). Sound up! #avgeek #oasis #aviationlovers #fighterjet #morefunthanqueueingonticketmaster
