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: Allegiant A319 Sighting in Provo

It has certainly been a while since I chased after any large commercial airliners (I need to go spotting up in Salt Lake one of these days!). Unless something unusual or worthwhile was flying in or out, I had no reason to do any spotting at Provo Airport. Plus, I've been busy with school, flight training with Platinum Aviation, and my new job! But this morning, I noticed that the Allegiant Airbus A319 flying into Provo today was a recent acquisition for the airline (and an airframe I never photographed before, not mention being in the new livery!), so I made my way out to the dike road to catch it!

Provo (PVU) 54

Preview:

Allegiant Air Airbus A319-111 (N337NV) rolling out on 31, arriving from Phoenix-Mesa as AAY280. At the turn of the year, Allegiant has temporarily suspended flights to Oakland and San Diego out of Provo due to fluctuation in demand; similar things have happened up in Ogden. However, on certain days of the week, Allegiant flies out Provo to Phoenix twice in one day, hence the different flight number. AAY280 is the second flight of the day.

AAY280 taxiing to the terminal via Taxiway A. Airframe formerly with EasyJet as G-EZED and acquired by Allegiant in Novemeber 2017. The airline put N337NV into service earlier this month!

Utah Valley University Diamond DA40 Diamond Star (N100UV) airborne after departing on 31 for local flight. I should be checked in this plane by now, if it weren't for all the crap UVU put me through last year!
(Yes, I still have some ill-will towards UVU's flight school right now...)
