He deserves so much better than this team.

They did this and worse during the Floyd protests. Little retarded peckerwood boys don’t give a shit. Those little boys belong in cages.

Bluesky hid this saying it was rude. Weird. (I guess it is - but it’s earned)

Happy birthday!

I feel as though Joe Hinrichs (or whoever authorized this) needs an eye so black it’s swollen shut and leaves a permanent scar.

Short flight, and I was on the sunny side the whole trip. Not a lot of pictures to be had.

Moved just a few seats back to row 4 this time. Couldn’t resist on the very brief layover - one of the fastest I’ve ever had - getting this Diet Mountain Dew with the new-old logo!

The BB slipped that out earlier this week. Good to see it.

N8843S at rest at Gate C54. This will become flight 270, our next and final flight of the day to Albuquerque.

Landed at DEN and going by Denver Air Connection’s eclectic regional fleet - featuring a Fairchild Metroliner and a Doriner 328JET

Take off from St. Louis, aerial views of clouds over Missouri and Kansas and canned Deja Blue.

Window seat in row 1! Holy crap, this is definitely never happening again…

N8843S, another 737-MAX8, is our next plane to not only Denver but also Albuquerque. Departure delayed an hour for what appears to be HOS issues (inbound was on time). Very fortunate that this same unit is flying our last leg too - can’t miss the connection when your plane IS the connection.

Lambert’s Terminal 2, built exclusively for Southwest in the late 90s, carries what passes as a torch for the famous TWA hub that once made STL one of the busiest airports in the US. But times change & in about a decade everything in these photos will be gone, as STL reduces to a rebuilt Terminal 1.

Irony: seeing New Mexico ONE while traveling to New Mexico. Sadly, she’s headed for Baltimore :(

Noms at The Blue Note with the best window in the terminal.

And a better shot of N8888M from our seat at the Blue Note! Very nice.

Flight details. A little late.

Finally got a view of N8888M. Loading up for its next flight to New York-LaGuardia while we have a 3 hour layover…

HI @aviationstl.bsky.social !

Landed at Lambert!

Uneasy as I still slightly am on these jets, this is the nicest narrow body cabin I’ve ever been in I think. Very roomy. An Amfleet II or Superliner on the ground is still vastly superior but I could get used to this.

Descending over Metro East on approach to Lambert.

My gf and I are having an active discussion about the effects of you guys did leave and she’s panicked at the thought. She also thinks that this will be the catalyst to make the secession initiative succeed.

I’ll make sure to tag you for legs 2-3 too. Heading to ABQ on a CLE-STL-DEN-ABQ itinerary. Coming back Monday on @amtrak.com’s legendary Southwest Chief + Lake Shore Limited ABQ-CHI-CLE.

This being noted I have not heard much about this lately but they got the go ahead to collect signatures I think.

There is an effort to put a resolution on the ā€˜28 ballot to explore seceding. If I lived there I’d vote yes, but many many people are terrified that even this might make the US government attack them like how the so-far only Civil War started. I’d vote yes anyway. California doesn’t need the US.
