Where do you blog nowadays? Haven't followed you since G+ went down and you dropped Reddit too. You don't seem overly active on Mastodon either?

Mostly Mastodon, actually. My posts are usually unlisted, so not on the home stream, but you should see them if you follow me there.

There's a new blog coming ... eventually. On Gitlab.

We got this radio request - Code Alpha - a high priority incoming aircraft. It wanted 150,000 pounds of gas, 40 gallons of coffee, 70 box lunches, and 25 pounds of bananas. It wouldn’t identify itself. It was clearly a big plane. It didn’t take us long to figure out that the Code Alpha was Air Force One.

That was a good read. Thanks for posting! I think I'll have to read that book.
