Summer skies in DFW.

haha well that legend is a lie, but you are right that it does have a great atmosphere. There is a minority of Duck fans who are real obnoxious, but overall, it is a great place to tailgate and watch a game. Actually, a big chunk of the regular season is during the best weather months of the year, so there is that. It doesn't get better than late summer (which I'd argue continues through the end of September) and fall in OR and the PNW!

here is a random video of me landing the friday afternoon prior to the show, shot by a visiting plane spotter. There are some big tall trees and power lines real close to the approach end of RWY31L that I hadn't anticipated, and that coupled with a short runway (6600') and wanting to plant it right on the threshold, I took a little too much power off after clearing the trees, and was basically in min burner on touchdown to stop the sink rate. Not my smoothest landing by a long shot……


Do you ever flare when no one is looking?
