Feel free to share aviation facts about yourself that you think others would find odd and or surprising.

Example: Believe it or not, but I’ve never flown on a Boeing ER aircraft of any kind yet. (Actually true)

Believe it or not: I got to fly on a Southwest Airlines flight with the entire Nashville Predators NHL team. I sat next to P.K. Suban. (Their private A318 was having tire pressure issues at the time).

Hurray. First ever GIF I’ve posted on the IFC. As a hockey person, I just had to 😂

Anyways, believe it or not, I’ve waved to a pilot from the roof of my house (and he waved back from his Cessna). I’ve also flown on the exclusive A350ULR 4 times (was supposed to be another 4 times this year, totaling 8).
