Last Saturday, I flew to one of my newly favorited airports. Portland. I flew LAX-PDX in the US Airways E175 for @AmericanVirtual. I took off in the mid to late afternoon in Los Angeles and flew north over San Francisco, Redding and up into Portland. I use my IPhone 6s for a lot of flights, but for this flight I used my IPhone11, the difference between all high graphics and all low graphics is amazing and using my IPhone 11 with high graphics is definitely more fun. I landed just after sunset in Portland but the sun shining off the mountains of Oregon was awesome to say the least. I actually really like the E-Jets, they’re easy to fly and the cockpit reminds me of a mini A220. Flight time was 1 hour 48 minutes
