Cleared to fly over Pittsburgh International Airport yesterday afternoon. It ended up being a beautiful day to fly - windy but great visibility and beautiful autumn scenery.

Awful. 2 in 2 is certainly a statistical anomaly. RIP to our fellow aviators, and prayers for the survivor and families.

Nice plane. Glad everyone is okay.

Today's proof that the gene pool needs a little chlorine.

Congratulations and job well done!
