The Hawaiian Airlines 787 event yesterday was incredible! Seeing the plane up close and personal and interacting with the Hawaiian team members was a fantastic experience! Everyone one there was a pleasure to talk to! Looking forward to seeing this plane over the next month as it makes more proving runs and to fly onboard the aircraft on the inaugural! Keep an eye out for the full cabin tour video coming soon!

Mahalo Hawaiian Team!

Hello everyone!

I know it has been a long time since my last post here, so it is time for an update!

First up, SFO Live Streams:
They will return! For some context, the last show was back in February, and that was a great show! The reason I decided to take a break was for a number of reasons. The work needed to get a show ready and set up all the equipment was a lot and required multiple hours in advance of the show to get ready. With work having increased hours, having very little downtime between work and streaming was starting to take a toll. While work is still going on, I will be leaving that job to finish up my school in about 2 months time. I hope to be back streaming way before that, within the next few weeks.

How the stream will change:
Overall, the stream will stay the same, but I do plan up updating some things. First off, I don't plan on having a regular schedule at first. I plan to mostly make it up to SFO when there is a new airline or special aircraft coming to visit. Once work is done and the start of a new school calms down, I will see about making a permanent schedule.

New content:
I will be doing more content away from the streams, a lot of it related to Flight Sim! Over the years of the channel, I have done both Flight Sim and Real World aviation content. I haven't done Flight Sim content for a while, but I will be bringing that back. I plan to be more in front of the camera for content as well, like with the recent FlightSimExpo tour video.

Channel change:
At some point, a new logo will be made for the channel. I know I just updated my logo about a year ago, but after using it for a while, there are reasons I want to change it, such as it not fitting well for profile pictures. If anyone would be interested in helping out with that, please do reach out!

I hope everyone is doing well, I look forward to being on a live chat with everyone again soon!

Hey everyone,

Quick update today on the streams.

First off, thank you all for the messages. My dad is home and doing much better!

I was going to get back into streaming this week, but my car had other plans. Coming home from work the other day, it started to vibrate quite heavily and it had spewed oil all over itself in the engine bay. The engine is toast and will need to be replaced. That is something I expect to take a while. I am going to see if I can get up to SFO next week as that is the 1 year anniversary of the live stream.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Hey everyone,

Id like to ask for thoughts and prayers tonight for my dad. He had a surgery a few days ago that was expected to go smoothly, and it did, and be home within a week after. Since his time in recovery. things have deteriorted and he is unfortunately doing worse and is now in the ICU. Its all very surprising and out of the blue to have these complications. The doctors say he is stable and they expect him to recover, he is in good hands, but things are quite scary.

Streams and the LAX trip I had planned are on hold at the moment till things get better.

Thought and prayers are all I ask for right now.
Thank you everyone!

Hey everyone,

I hope you all have had a great holiday season and will have a great start to 2023!

Updates on the live stream. Last week there was not a stream due to some personal issues I was having. I am doing better and would like to be back up at SFO this week, but the weather is not looking good for the next few days, unfortunately. The next three days are the ones I have off work and it looks like it will be pouring down rain each day at SFO. So there is a good chance there won't be a stream again this week. If the weather improves, I will make my way up, but unfortunately, nothing is waterproof.

I apologize for the lack of streams, I promise I am not going anywhere! Stay safe and healthy everyone!

Hey everyone! Wanted to give a quick update.

As I mentioned before Thanksgiving, I would not be streaming the week of Thanksgiving as I had family home and wanted to spend time with them. This week I was planning to be back up at SFO, that unfortunately doesn't look like it will happen. I am currently sick and not feeling well enough to go out to the airport and do a live stream. I hope to be back streaming next week! I might see how I feel tomorrow for a flight sim stream, but that will have to wait and see.

Thank you everyone for your continued support recently!

Good morning everyone,

I, unfortunately, have some bad news. As I said in my last stream from SFO, I was going to be traveling to PHX for a stream this week. That trip has been canceled for some personal reasons and also due to some equipment issues. I will be back at SFO this Friday for a stream! I will get to PHX another time for sure, I have a fun idea for that when it happens.

Hope everyone is having a good day!
