The mirror of the unedited raw files being stored locally on several WD hard drives. All 69,000 of them.

As far as my photography advice, you're free to disagree, but I find my methods produce great photos, so I stick with them.

Awesome TR as usual.

LPDAL, I hope you're archiving these TRs for posterity, either by printing them out or through some other means...30 years from now you'll be grateful to have all of that information at hand. I wish I had recorded even basic information from flights I took when I was younger!!

LPDAL, I love your trip reports as you make me feel like I am there and this TR is no exception. I loved all of your pictures and the detail you incorporate into every flight, like the different types of aircraft you saw as well as the history of everything. I loved that the Delta FAs recognized your trip reports and I have to admit, that is quite an honor as you clearly know how to make the most of your experiences. Thank you again for the TR and wishing you all of the best!

Thank you for your kind words.

Yes, I do archive them in a binder.

You're welcome LPDAL! Always a pleasure to read your reports and I would definitely save that hand written thank you note, as it is not only heartwarming but a testament to your trip reporting! Keep it up!

I've got a very exciting announcement, but first I must reference a quote from American Eagle First Class with the Ritz Carlton Amelia Island Oceanfront Resort | Trip Reports Forum | FlyerTalk;

Several months later, I am now part of the Envoy Air ramp crew. Yep, I'm a ramp agent. I was #3 out of the 6 people they hired out of 12 total candidates, and am starting in about a month. I have never been so excited to start working!

I want to thank everyone for their support thus far!!!

Nicely done report! You have gotten a lot better at mixing the story telling with the photos, it flows quite nicely. You have a knack for putting just the right amount of text in with your photos. Sorry for the late reply - was traveling and haven't caught up with FT much lately.
