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: Some Quick Shots at Work

After I got done flying and got back to work, all the planes went out again and there was a lull in office activity. That gave me an excuse to step outside with my camera in hand and get a little photography in. It was a beautiful day and a lot of aircraft were flying. And I got lucky, as there were a few unique aircraft sightings.

Spanish Fork-Springville (SPK) 19

Preview:

Robinson R44 Raven II (N825TJ) arriving over Taxiway A.

Lancair 320 (N320DP) on short final for 30.

Airgyro Taurus (N553AT) on short final for 30 working the pattern. Airgyro Aviation manufactures the Tercel and Taurus gyrocopters. The Taurus is built for more heavy-duty roles such as air spray, fire & rescue, and heavy-lifting. It can hold three people compared to the Tercel's two and the Taurus can carry a heavier payload.

Platinum Aviation Diamond DA20-C1 Katana Eclipse (N802CT) on short final for 30 working the pattern. My flight instructor was giving a checkout flight!

Cessna 172M Skyhawk (N8285H) on short final for 30. Note the attachment points for sensor equipment; several aircraft based at Spanish Fork work in this capacity for some reason.
