Left is a popular Cessna 172S aircraft, and right is the much higher performing Cessna Citation 560 Ultra. State of the art general aviation from 24 years ago!”

Picture of the Day: A dance floor on Mars
Cheryl Goodwin submitted this photo and note: “My husband and I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with the “Hawaii Mars” and her crew on Sproat Lake in August 2024. The event was a few days before she was flown down the coast of Vancouver Island to enter the next phase of service on static display at the BC Aviation Museum. The experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity that had us dancing on the water bomber’s massive wing prior to high speed taxiing along the lake’s shoreline.”
