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: Morning Spotting at Grove Field

After getting off work this morning, my uncle and I flew up from Salem to Grove Field in Camas, Washington so he could celebrate one of his granddaughter's birthday by taking her flying. While he did that, I stayed on the ground and took some photos around the ramp of Grove Field, a quaint little airport on the Washington-side of the Columbia River just outside the Portland metro area. There wasn't much to see, but it was an airport I've never been to before so it still made for an interesting morning. Plus getting actions shots of family members flying makes for an interesting side project!
