Weather wasn't as nice as yesterday, but traffic more than made up for it.

Finally caught SKIER95, one of the C-130's based in Schenectady. They did multiple runs on 19; notice the difference in pitch to arrest the descent between the flap settings.

Very friendly. As long as you don't block any of the gates, you're good to go.

That Canadian 182 sure is well traveled. Coast to coast Canadian style if the decals are to be believed.
