San Francisco airport has two runways (28L and 28R, which at least to me stand for left and right like I label my shoes) 750-feet apart that run perfectly parallel to each other, at times leading to two planes landing at the same time in what looks like a performance
This is a video of Instagram user its.PilotJohn performing a nosedive to allegedly wake up his female passenger with a little weightlessness. It’s true, I’ve found nothing wakes you up in a hurry quite like thinking you’re about to die. Was she actually asleep though? That’s debatable. A debate you
This is a short video of a young great horned owl spotted by school network administrator Eric Lind at his parents’ house in Eureka, Illinois, that had stolen a child’s toy hobby horse and was flying around the neighborhood with it like a witch on her broomstick. Eric pointed out

This is a flight demonstration of a 1:3.5 scale Black Airwolf Bell-222 R/C helicopter. Now that is one big R/C chopper! The absolutely massive unit measures a very respectable 4.25m (14-feet) in length, with a rotor of 3.75m (12.25-feet). Wow. This thing makes me wonder: at what point do you
This is a video from a drone with a Superman toy attached that gives the viewer a sense of riding on the Man Of Steel’s back. That’s fun. Would I much rather ride on Falkor’s back? Of course, but beggars can’t be choosers. I mean they can be, but then
