64 flights, 22 takeoff and landings, 0.95 trips to the moon distance wise, 196,616 nautical miles, 85 layovers. One trip to the sim to reset takeoff and landings 😂 Does not include airline deadheads or personal flights. Not a bad year!

No idea what my hours total was, but I flew my last flight of the year this afternoon.....a 1.2 to close out 2025, and one last stop for the year in the hot fuel pits :)

Other than some low level fog, it was a cold blue day and the olympics and north cascades are all capped in snow again....awesome day to be flying!

Still have 2.75 trips left to finish so there will be more. But as of today 520 block, 103 landings, 168,412 miles, and 27,894 passengers successfully delivered. Zero clue what I credited but it paid for my pool so enough.

Addendum: added another 46 hours, 10 landings, timed out three times in 12 days, and managed to be randomed at KCM 58% of the time in 12 working days. Capped it off with a CAT III to minimums and the scariest taxi of my life in Sea-Tac on a foggy night with about 50ft of forward visibility for most of it.

That's the downside of doing real CAT IIIs. Plane can land zero-zero fine, but good luck getting to the gate on your own.

Follow the green in ICN saved my ass (you can totally say ass here, in this context) twice.

I found a weakness to follow the greens yesterday. If you're taxiing into the sun, they are very hard to see.

Got better as we got closer to the terminal, I could at least see the backlit shadows of other planes, but taxiway T was a black morass with green centerline lights that even the LED landing lights couldn’t penetrate. The reported 700 RVR it was not. Thankfully it was back in base and both the FO and I know the airport very well.
 
Nothing is more butt puckering than transiting San Diego harbor at 10 kts with 50ft visibility not being able to see any of the lateral channel buoys as you sail past them and hoping you don’t run aground in a 50,000 ton ship.

The harbor tugs don’t even materialize out of the fog until they’re ready to tie up alongside.
