🧿 Perspective is important.

🧿 As you may know, depending on how long you have been here, I grew up in Kuwait, and lived there for a total of 25ish years over my lifetime.

Here are two Americans discovering the heat in Kuwait, and I am pretty sure this is not midsummer.

I've seen tapes melt in the deck and bend if they are left hanging out of the radio; and yes, before you ask, you can fry eggs on the pavement.

The real shock is the nighttime temperatures, especially if you come land in the summer, get out of the airplane at 2am and get blasted by 45+ degree hot winds for the four steps before you enter the jet bridge to the [airconditioned] airport building.

Also, sand, dust storms, etc..

🧿 Almost forgot to post, busy working, here is a meme.

🧿The 78 days of illegal NATO bombing of Yugoslavia continues, as do the daily anniversaries.

In the arms of his father Vladan, on May 31, 1999, two-year-old Marko Simić, the youngest victim of the NATO bombing, died in Novi Pazar.

🧿 How is your English spell-ing?

No comment about the RU debacle, other than the usual, "This was identified early on as a likely outcome".

🧿 FYI, nobody cares. More actual content soon.

🧿 As I process and upload the next [really short] flight, here is a 'tchune' to get you in the mood, as is tradition. This one coming at you straight from 30ish years ago. A classic of sorts.

🧿 This time, drones, "Liftoff" in 30 minutes, 8 minute flight. 😎

🧿 Soviet Russian Bear and Drago Bosnic are back for another flight, this time in the "Liftoff" drone racing simulator used for training by the ukrops.

Significantly shorter than usual, another WB Flies - recorded well over a month ago - this time we fly around a construction site in the virtual desert.

During the flight we discuss Drago's experience of flying drones; the distinction between an 'FPV drone pilot' and a 'drone operator', and I give my takes on how it was to fly in the old days when the main goal was obstacle avoidance, having been an FPV pilot for 10 years.

Light on the humor and reluctantly uploaded to YT in such short format but worth the watch if you do not know what these racing drones can actually fly like.

Departure : some virtual roof
Arrival : some virtual roof
Flight Time : 8 minutes
