The mighty Grumman!!!
Image of a pilot's electronic logbook, with focus on a grand total of 452.2 hours.
So... After putting yesterday's flight in my logbook, I noticed this. ๐ค
Compared with career pilots it's miniscule, but for a humble PPL it's feels like a big thing. On to 500, I guess! ๐

Image of an aircraft avionics screen, showing a high tailwind component, 60 knots.
Two light aircraft parked on an airport apron. The aircraft furthest from camera is in the process of being refueled by the fuel truck.
Airborne photo of a light aircraft on final approach to the runway, as seen from the cockpit.
Big unexpected day of flying... Dropped off a plane back to its owner after its annual, then headed on to rescue a plane with a flat tyre. ~5hrs airborne. ๐
Horrible headwind to get there, plus dust storms, incredible tailwind (and personal best GS for an SR20) on the homeward leg. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
A collage of three images from a light aircraft flight over the city of Melbourne, the day's sunrise and two smiling friends standing near the fuselage after the flight.
Three trombone players fly in a plane together. (Sounds like the setup to a trombone joke ๐๐ซฃ)
A lovely morning for sharing a flight with two long-time musical friends of mine. ๐๐
Oh no! Hope all are ok.

Several ducks take shelter underneath a red and silver Cirrus aircraft, parked on a cement ramp.
The day the weather was so wet that even the ducks sought shelter...
*Man in Motion instantly plays in my head*
A cloudy sunrise over water, taken from a boat. Some of the boat's rails etc can be seen in the left foreground.

Went on a work-organised team day today. A beautiful morning out on a fishing charter. ๐ฅ๏ธ๐ฃ Even saw a double rainbow! ๐๐
Especially smiling ones!
@stevenomadic.bsky.social Enjoyed part one of The Scenic Route. For absolutely no related reason, I have a hankering for Indian food tonight! ๐

Noice!!! ๐๐ฉ๏ธ
I wish we had a bar like that. ๐ฅ
It wasn't Herbie, ๐ but I believe very much inspired by him/Head Hunters.
๐ No worries at all! Thanks for the insight. ๐
The only diesel I've been in was one ride in a DA40 NG - which was pleasant enough, but not really inspiring. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
If you like that.... I heard this one in a bar one evening. It had so much Herbie Hancock DNA, that I had to go up to the DJ and ask if it was him and a collab with a French speaking artist.

I absolutely love that album.
Wide angle photo of a small aircraft cockpit. The right wing and propeller can be seen out the windows, blanketed by a white light from inside a cloud.
Got to do a little flying this week. ๐
Even got to explore inside some clouds! โ๏ธ๐ฉ๏ธโ๏ธ
Oooh, we didn't really get any of those over here. What are they like to fly?
