The September issue drops. 💥 Managing Editor @terencecgannon.com worries out loud about the backlog on De Havilland 515 'Super Scoopers'. According to his nibs, meeting the demand requires deep contemplation of the lineup outside the Crumbl cookie store and adopting a 'Mossie Mentality'. | 🛩️ 🦆 ⚔️ 🥇

At its maximum cruise of 317 knots, it could cover the 470 nautical miles from Calgary to Tofino in about an hour and a half. | 🛩️ 📹 📍 🇨🇦 | 🔗 cirrusaircraft.com/aircraft/vis...

A Conair 'Q400-AT' (identified on the register as a DHC-8-402) is dispatched from Springbank Airport to attack a wildfire burning northwest of the city. Is there no end to the versatility of this capable, Canadian-built aircraft? | 🛩️ 📹 📍 🍁 | 🔗 conair.ca

Yeah, that all may be true, but the aesthetics of the Apple broadcast leave Sportsnet in the dust. The Dan Schulman wall-of-sound, the endless promotions of interest only to local fans, and the producers’ utter fixation with showing Schneider’s reaction to *everything* is utterly exhausting. | ⚾️

Finally had a chance to partake of Part XIII of @pablotorrefindsout.bsky.social’s investigation of Kawhi-Gate. @pablo.show and @darthamin.bsky.social make a case reminiscent of 60 Minutes in the before-times, except with a dash of wry humour thrown in for good measure. Watchworthy. | 🏀
