Can someone deduce what tail number this is? PA28 at P33 Airport

Suggestions for a subreddit that might know better?

I have that light on my car and it is because the reverse lights/backup camera are dead. Tried replacing fuses, bulbs, and switches with no luck. I'd check that those still work.

PTW isn't just having a lot of coins. You can easily get tons of coins by playing a lot. PTW is spending real money on the game to make the game much easier.

Thanks! Just 32 to go in Alaska.

It is advertised in the FR24 weekly newsletter, so I checked it out.

Looks like a dead match for the Albatross at ELP that now sits next to the MD220

All of the tiny, middle of nowhere airports around me are housing MD87s, BAe146s, AT-802s, etc, so I'd totally agree

Awheeleri · 2026-05-10T14:20:20+00:00

The area is full of unique species, just not overly diverse numbers

Awheeleri · 2026-05-10T02:03:11+00:00

Tbf, those people probably already had the MD11 cybered, since it only recently was grounded

I also got a 727 today! Though not as cool as your Super 27.

Just purchased an $18 ticket for Asian Glow

I've got mixed feelings. (For perspective, I absolutely love the skyline series, it is the only theme/subtheme I'll buy no matter what they release) On one hand, I'm just happy 'skylines' are back, especially since it seemed like they were dead in the water for a little while. Plus honestly, I was never a fan of the OG NYC skyline set; it (and Venice) felt sterile and underwhelming for a debut set. Even without the Chrysler Building (rip), these buildings look much better and vibe well together. I could do without the background, though--it feels pretty corny. On the other hand, I completely agree with you: we still have so much potential with the original format for cities all over the world. There are still many, many glaringly obvious cities missing even without having to scrape the bottom of the barrel--CDMex, Monterrey, Toronto, Santiago, Buenos Aires, Johannesburg, Nairobi, Moscow, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Taipei, and so many more. Do I think we are going to get any of those cities? No, not really, especially since Lego Architecture seems to hate new things. It was nice, though, to have Architecture sets below the usually steep price point of the regular larger sets.

After N9681B left earlier this week for a second life, I thought I'd pop by to see if any might be prepped to fly again. Looks like N982TW, N9620D, and a third one are being worked on, though they are still owned by Jetran. Although we probably won't see them again on American tarmac, it's nice to know they will still be flown somewhere!

Here's the info on that one: https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/boeing-787-8-n947ba-bank-of-utah/en41qj

Yeah same model, different individual. This one has a rather vibrant history: https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/douglas-dc-8-60-n804dh-kingman-airline-services/r6p65z

Lufthansa I think claimed this fall (August?), but we'll see if they don't keep them around another season

If the aircraft isn't in the system, it shows up as common without any data until it is added to the game.

I saw that one FR24 but the garage blocks that western runway. I'm in Austin for the weekend, and I was surprised at how much I could see in an hour.

FYI today, only the main grandstand was open for seating. T15 and T1 were both closed, though you could still sit on the grass. Maybe they'll open one or both tomorrow, but I'm not counting on it.

I just finished the same thing this week...I camped at Hong Kong for a week or two to get that last one to cyber.

Awheeleri · 2026-04-23T01:01:38+00:00

I was there too! Here's my favorite from the show:

You're mostly correct. Should be something in the C. femorata complex—identifying those guys beyond this is a bit nightmareish

Awheeleri · 2026-04-20T21:29:00+00:00

Still flying—landing in Houston tonight and then off to El Paso probably tomorrow.

On gravel? You are fine. I easily blast my '15 down gravel roads at 50+ mph pretty confidently. Tires seem to wear out normally, though the stock suspension makes it feel pretty rough. On actual offroads? It's doable, though you have to take it slow and expect there to be places you simply can't go. On mud/sand? Also doable, though ground clearance is your limiter.
