Folks, I’ve been made aware that some of my posts are not in the public interest.
After listening to the argument, I agree.
I need to take some time to reassess how and what I post. My mission here is to try & educate the public about aviation & sometimes the military. These are my passions & I happen to have a journalism background.
I’ve at times gone about this in ways that are not productive. If I can’t achieve my mission in a way that is positive, then this account will need to shut down.
I’d rather not elaborate any further, but I’m aware that this is social media & many of you will speculate the airline has pressured me. That is not the case & I request we speculate no further.
As always, I am not now nor have I ever been a spokesperson for my airline. I have not been contacted & would like to keep it that way.
I’m doing this because I would like you to learn, and maybe inspire some. I consider my audience to be people who don’t know much about aviation. It’s not for fame…I have no intention of revealing my identity or going on a podcast or whatever. Nor is it for money; I haven’t accepted offers to partner or advertise & have no intention of doing so.
So, I must take some time away from social media. I hope to be back, but in a way that is productive & adds to my profession rather than detracts from it.
I don’t think it will be too long. In the interim…maybe occasionally lift that window shade & marvel at the wonders we have achieved. Or take a nap, your call. Either way, we’re going to get you to your destination safely.
