The thoughts of Adam Bednar
This week I was off to Houston for the first time ever. On this trip, I was scheduled to get a ride on my first Boeing 767 ever, but the weather had other plans. However, it was for the best because I ended up getting direct flights both ways. I guess there was a silver lining this time, but I still have that box to check and get on a 767.
The first flight was provided by United N88331. I was able to get some pictures of it coming into the gate.
This past week, I made my first trip to Oklahoma. For this trip, American Airlines provided all of my flights.
My first flight was provided by CRJ-200 N262PS for a quick trip to Charlotte. I was supposed to have a quick connection here and was afraid I would miss it since the first flight was delayed 30 minutes, but my second flight had already been delayed. Here is N262PS after we landed in Charlotte. We did not have a jet bridge, so I was able to grab a great shot of it from the ground.
I was able to grab a few pictures during my recent trip to Memphis. This trip was a split of American Airlines and United Airlines.
On this trip, I was able to fly my first MD-83, at least from what I can remember. I might have flown one when I was younger, but back then I wasn’t as interested in the types of planes I was getting to fly. This plane has an interesting layout with 2 seats on the left side and three seats on the right side. Say hello to N9616G!
It looks like I will be traveling just about every week in April. I hope to document some or all of my flights to finally start putting this blog to use. During my trips I will also get to check off some states and airplanes I have not be to or on before.
Here’s hoping to no major delays or cancellations!
On Friday, we took advantage of the long holiday weekend to take a trip out to Yellow Springs, OH. First up were the sunflower fields. 
There are around 400,000 plants in this field and it was amazing to see so many of them at once. I think we were a bit early still because many of them hadn’t bloomed yet. It was also cold and wet so I am sure that didn’t help.
After the sunflower fields, we went a bit to the southeast to Clifton Gorge.
