About This Blog:

The primary purpose of this blog is to showcase the best of my aviation photography. As such, you will find links to my main aviation gallery on Facebook containing photos from aircraft spotting, some kind of aviation event such as air shows and fly-in events, as well as aviation museums. I also critique my flights on commercial airlines and the services they provide. Occassionally, you'll find personally written, independent articles based on news and current events involving aviation. And of course, I'll put up links to official and unofficial aviation-related websites when I find them. And when time permits, I'll talk and discuss about anything involving aviation. But most importantly, this is my way to document my journey into the aviation industry!

Gallery Update: A Familiar Visitor to Spanish Fork

I was going flying today and I happened to bring my camera this time. Before I headed out to the airplane I scheduled myself in, I snapped a few shots which included a familiar aircraft I haven't seen in a while.

Spanish Fork-Springville (U77) 3

Preview:

Sorensen BF9-2 Phantom "Unfinished Business" (N81973) parked on the Spanish Fork ramp. I haven't seen this one-of-a-kind bi-plane since 2014! Built by Danny Sorensen of Golden Age Airshows, the aircraft has a Russian-made engine, and German-made propeller. It took Sorensen nearly 6,000 hours to complete construction of the aircraft, excluding design time. It is an aircraft reminiscent of the 1930s (the golden age of aviation, hence the air show name!) with modern high performance.
