Ha ha!

Around here, I do have to watch out for descending vorticies from the numerours flights to Philly, Baltimore, Washington, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh and New York...I fly right in the middle of all of them!  Always something to see or watch out for as I am USUALLY the slowest and lowest aircraft on the food chain!

I have never been affected by wake turbulence or vorticies except once, and that was by a Cessna 182 I had underestimated!  I took off too close behind him and got rocked!  Anyway, always something to see around here!

Some shots from around NYC...

Had another airliner fly UNDER me the other day to land at a nearby big, commercial airport. Saw the traffic coming on the FISH FINDER and then waited for him to come into view...

I think it was an ALLEGIANT AIR carrier? Looks like the heraldry and marking of one of that organization's aircraft, but this is from 6,000 feet away...

Here is Air Force II flying near me in Harrisburg, PA, the Capitol City.

I am thinking the crew was flying "pilot pro" missions as there was no TFR or anything...still cool to see it.

I wish I would have drilled down to show you the call-sign...SAAM something or other?

Many of the 89th Airlift Wing jets come up here for practice as KMDT (Middletown/Harrisburt INTL) is a ghost - town usually.

More JET traffic flying BELOW me in the Baltimore / DC area where I am always VFR!

iFly helps me see and avoid the HEAVY IRON in this area, along with navigating the SFRA, FRZ, Class B and D airspaces, and many R-Areas and Presidential TFRs!

Last weekend we had a circus of special airspace with the POTUS and VEEP flying around for Memorial Day...confusion as they almost never get it right and are always changing.

Anyway, here is a JET below me...agian.

Today had an airline slight above me...the FISH FINDER (aka ADSB) found it first!
