  4. My plane to Bangkok last week

    I know it's probably not dangerous, but I fly pretty frequent and never saw this before. Is it a normal occurrence, and how does it happen?

  7. Swiss f/a 18 Axlap live fire range from a few years ago.

    Saw this on another sub and thought you'd guys like to see it. You think that third jet is really as close as it looks ?

  8. My 90 minute 737 flight flew up to 41,000 feet. How often are they allowed to go that high?

    I flew on a 737 max 8, so 41k is its ceiling. This may have been the highest I’ve ever flown. Is it unusual for such a short flight to go that high?
