Hi everyone!

Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 Fourteen Days Overdue
Will we ever know what happened to Flight MH370? Whether the most recent floating objects spotted are from the missing flight are related is still being determined, however most experts believe the debris may have sunk by now. However, even if they do find floating debris, the process of determining whether they’re from the missing…
NEW 3D Animated Hawaii Clipper
I really should not be doing this but I saw the first version of the 3D model of the Hawaii Clipper Flying Boat today and was just ecstatic about its impressive accuracy. There are a few tweaks that need to be made but overall, I’m quite pleased with the artists work. This model will eventually…
Malaysia Airliner Hijacked
There is a headline I expect to read any day now that new information may be coming to light that indicates an intentional effort to switch off the various communication devices aboard the Beijing bound 777 aircraft.

The Trust Territory SA-16 that served Chuuk Lagoon
Today I bring you one of the photos I recently unearthed that is certainly a blast front the past. Pictured is a Grumman SA-16 Albatross (tail #N9942F) used by the US Department of the Interior on the parking ramp of what is today’s Chuuk International Airport. For those of you who don’t know, the airport…
Getting ready for round III
Here is a very short montage of video I took on my last visit to Micronesia. As you can see, this effort had a lot of moving parts and many people making those parts work as smooth as possible. I could not take on an effort of this magnitude all by myself so my dear…

Back to Filming
This cold week in DC has made me really miss the warm waters of Micronesia. The good thing is that the days are getting longer as Spring approaches and soon, I hope, to be in those waters and the islands that seemingly float among them. Lately it really does feel like I take one step…
