2025 in Review...How Much Did You Fly?

I didn’t realize your baby was in FAT! I’m from about 40 miles south of FAT and if you need any resources, lemme know so I can get the family up there to do whatever. I also have a cousin who is a physician over in Clovis. Lemme know!

fun’s over, back to reality (domestic) this year
 
My first year in thirty years without any loggable time.

Did about 20 diplomatic flights as safety/security guy. In flight, assisted with English comms and had go/no-go authority with regards to weather, mx, and landing/takeoff clearances. Beyond that, had some security responsibilities.

Flew about 30 hours in my powered paraglider, low and slow.

Easing into retirement.
 
Back flying the line for the last 5 months of the year. In that time I flew 48 international and 4 domestic legs to 17 different cities. Shortest flight time was 2.7 hours (895 miles), and the longest was 12.8 hours (5,104 miles).

419 hours and 187,920 miles flown. 7.7 times around the world, or .8 of the way to the moon. 12,224 passengers with a heaviest weight of 540,100 lbs and an average of 486,900 lbs.

170 block (97 hours were on OE trips)
1100+ credit

Spent 7 of 12 months in the school house.

Fewest hours I’ve flown in a year since 2002 and the fewest I’ve ever flown since starting with a Part 121 carrier back in 2008.
