So me and Kimmell were starting a flight earlier today...he was piloting, I was handling navigation and radios... On what we thought was gunna be a short flight from Los Angeles to Portland Oregon in an Airbus A320...
This is a comm logs between us...
Me: Adjust heading 270 degrees Kimmell: ETA to PDX? Me: Uhh, hold. Me: ETA to PDX, 12:10 Me: -_______- Me: Nine...hours... Kimmell: -_______-
At that point, we proceeded to put the jet into a steep dive and crashed it in a field... ...beats flying for 9 hours!

Thats a picture I made after a friend and I took off from KLAX (LAX, in LA) to KEED (Needles Airport, in Needles, CA). Flight took 30-40 minutes. I was in the 747, he was in the L45. All in all, it was an extremely fun flight, and all those pictures were taken while we leapfrogged eachother haha. EDIT: I just made a video with all the pictures in it, so here ya go!
