ATL: Storm Damage

  • Saturday 6/22 & Monday 6/24, 2019:
    Over the last 5-7 years I have consistently lost or broken my own equipment as a result of overstimulation. It most often occurs during severe weather scenarios when my excitement is at its zenith & I am rushing about, trying to capture it all. Examples include the day I left a brand new cell phone on the roof of my car & drove off, costing me around $700. Numerous forgotten scanners & GoPro cameras that were simply left on a parking deck because I was in a rush. I'd estimate those losses to be in the $400-$600 range. On this particular occasion, however, the damage I caused to my own property is the costliest in my "planespotting" history - thousands of dollars when you add it all up. So why don't ya just press play & see why I call this one "Storm Damage". . .

    MATT, YOU ARE A GENIUS!! Come August 17th, I'll be flying to my native country of Sweden from Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey. I am flying with Scandinavian Airlines flight 910 (an Airbus A330-343) nonstop. Two weeks of pure enjoyment in my native country visiting family and friends!! I CAN'T WAIT!! Hey, may your camcorder and your car RIP. Hey Matt, when you mentioned manic Monday I played that song by The Bengals on iTunes. Thanks!! Great song!! Your channel is a classic!! Keep up the great work rain or shine!!

      Wow Niklas!!! I'm so jealous! I've always wanted to visit Scandinavia - Sweden in particular. I'm a huge fan of Saab aviation. They make some of the coolest combat jets ever! The Draken, Viggen & Gripen are so incredibly unique. Have you ever seen any of them perform in air shows? If you happen to see a Gripen while you're up there, take some pics for me! Draken & Viggens aren't flying anymore if I remember correctly. OH! Also, can you bring me back some cool weather - not sure if customs will allow it, but please try. One last item - the Bangals were HUGE Beatles fans & that's how they got their name. Instead of "Beat"les, they went with "Bang"les. Interesting huh?

    Hey Matt, recently spent a week in ATL, and I gotta say its easily my new favorite airport! It was awesome seeing the Delta ops, the new A330neo, some military 737 versions in the Delta maintainence hangers, and of course the legendary "FLY DELTA JETS" sign. Pretty awesome!

    • @mlcochran78
      @mlcochran78  5 лет назад +1

      NICE! Yeah man, it's a great airport for aviation buffs like us. And the Delta Tech Ops ramp/hangars are like gifts that keep on giving. You never know what's going to emerge. They've had a couple of P-8s there for quite some time. Every now & again I even see Janet! Did you get to do a tour of the facility or just observe from the parking deck?

    when Airbus first proposed the A350 customers rebelled because ultimately it was too narrow. it was max 8 across seating and they wanted at least 9 across. Airbus wanted to use the tooling for the A330 i assume. Anyway no dice they had to redo the whole thing so it was now A350XWB or extra wide body.

    • @mlcochran78
      @mlcochran78  5 лет назад +1

      Oh WOW! Thanks for clearing that up for me Rohan. It makes sense because when I think back to my flight to Hawaii on an A330-300, I remember loving the 2-4-2 seating because my wife & I could sit together without the 3rd wheel. I wonder if anybody has ever used XWB as an insult. Lose some weight ya dadgum XWB!

    • @mlcochran78
      @mlcochran78  5 лет назад +1

      Oh gawd how I hate those cheek stamps! As far as your travels on AC Rouge goes, my advice is make sure you get a window seat (obviously) and stare out of it for the entire trip looking for UFOs. If anyone asks what you're looking for, tell em your mother ship is supposed to rendezvous with you at 35000ft! Jk. Don't do that. Ya don't wanna freak everyone out & cause a diversion.

    • @mlcochran78
      @mlcochran78  5 лет назад +1

      Hey Eileen! Oh I seek out this kind of action. There's nothing more thrilling to me than watching significant weather interact with flight operations. So whenever the opportunity to do so arises, I throw caution to the wind and haul ass out there. I can't imagine Seattle ever sees weather as violent as we do in the spring & summer, but it can be challenging just the same because of the rain. To me, however, rain isn't enough to draw me out there. I require the risk of thunderstorms. Its so damn hot & humid down here in Dixie there's a risk of storms pretty much everyday in the summertime. Not only is it fun to watch, but its a great way to beat the heat!

      Unfortunately it all depends on what or whom you consider to be the Lord. For example, BUDDHA DAMMIT! Now as a Presbyterian I see nothing wrong with that, but don't go anywhere near Tibet with that language. ALLAH DAMMIT won't mean much here in the states but you'd get beheaded for it in Afghanistan. So you have to be specific as to which Lord you mean when you ask someone not to take the Lord's name in vain. It's very very nuanced. . . .
