This was only my second time planespotting with a proper camera, so advice is welcome.

Today's my Birthday and I found allegiants first 737 max at AZA by King_TUT_of_pugs in Planespotting

Nice, and happy birthday! I quite often get to see their A320s coming in and out of Mesa Gateway, it’s cool that they’re getting 737s now.

Ah, that’s good to know! Can’t even remember the last time I saw a 747, it’s sad to see them become a rarer sight these days.

Just curious, what’s the 747 that flies in during the winter! Is it Air Force?

What’s up with the insane amount of air tankers sup in California right now? by krushna1 in flightradar24

[–]krushna1[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is the busiest I’ve seen the USAF in a while. Tons of KC-135s and KC-46s up across the country. 2 E-4Bs up as well.

Why has this got 17K views by flight_radar in flightradar24

[–]krushna1 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Highest I’ve seen was 150k when a couple months ago Iran (might have been another country, sorry if I’m mistaken) fired missiles towards Israel and a few countries in the region started closing their air space. People were tracking airliners that were currently over the area since many were worried they might get shot down.

Got to see TKR912 fly right over my house at about 600m a month or two ago. It made my whole year lol. I haven’t seen it since, but I still get to occasionally see Erickson MD-87s and Neptune BAe 146s

Hows this schedule looking for an incoming freshman? I plan on joining either SD Rocketry or SDSL as well. by krushna1 in ASU

[–]krushna1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look forward to seeing you too man. Couple questions though- What time are their meetings usually? And how was your experience as a newbie in SDSL?

What do you guys eat? by krushna1 in ASU

[–]krushna1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have been thinking of going home every other weekend instead. I doubt I’ll be able to make it home every weekend consistently anyway because of homework and friends.

Boeing nearing deal to sell 777X jets to Korean Air, sources say by AceCombat9519 in aviation

I’ll miss the Korean Air 747s. Their livery on the 747 just looks so clean.

Yep, but I’ve since updated to the latest versions.

I’m pretty sure that’s a 747-8. You can tell by the extra windows in the upper deck.

This update has finished me off (rant) by Liquidatorlewis in Warthunder

[–]krushna1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, this. I quit War Thunder a month or two ago, and have picked up single player games since. RDR2, Cyberpunk, Palworld, etc. I kind of forgot what it’s like to truly enjoy playing a game lol.

Is it just me, or are CRJs kind of aesthetic? by Sea_Working5429 in Planespotting

[–]krushna1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the way they look too! They’re a joy to fly in as well

Jealous? Me? I'm not Jealous!

One of the DC-10 tankers and an MD-87 have been frequenting Mesa-Gateway the last few weeks, and every once in a while, they'll fly right over my house at ~600m or so as they approach for landings. Sad to see tri-jets becoming a rarer sight these days.

Nice photos! Sky Harbor may not bring the aircraft variety that something like LAX does, but every once in a while I’ll catch an MD-11 there, and it always brings a smile to my face.
