Hey fam!! Today, I flew from Atlanta over to Sacramento, California. The flight went extremely well and everything went according to my plan. The landing could’ve been just a little smoother, but overall everything was carried out well enough. Can’t grease ‘em all 🤷🏾‍♂️😂 Anyway, I don’t want to hold you all up, so be safe everyone!!!

1. LiveFlight tracking (ATL-SMF)

2. Preparing for departure at ATL’s gate F9

3. Rotating off of runway 26L for Sacramento. We had a 77% load factor, so I took off with 15° of flaps

4. Flying North of Colorado Springs with Denver and Aurora in the distance

5. Flying Northeast of the Desert Experimental Range in Utah 💣💥

6. Flying just past Lake Tahoe🤩 I LOVE a good lake!!

7. Final approach onto runway 17L

8. Touchdown!! Final touching down after 4+ hours of cross-country flying. The landing wasn’t greased, but it wasn’t rough either. I think it was a decent landing but with nothing to brag about 🤷🏾‍♂️

9. Shutting down the engines at SMF’s gate A3

10. Here’s what our approach looked like via LiveFlight. I don’t know what’s been going on with LiveFlight lately, but the flight was completed

Yeh liveflight keeps thinking I would fly to some random location before turning back

Like how it thought I would fly to Europe/America while flying Singapore–>Adelaide
