There was a B-52 in the pattern at the local base today. I just so happened to have been in that part of town, so I set up and got some pics and video.

Fouga CM-170 Magister, a French two-seat twin-engine jet trainer. This example belongs to a private outfit in Fort Worth. I would love to fly this aircraft. It looks like a lot of fun.

Cessna 172. This particular plane and I have a bit of history. Back in 2014, after a several years long hiatus from actually flying, I took a “rediscovery” flight in 87G, flying around the Eagle Mountain Lake area before landing back at KFTW.
