      That’s awesome. You should tweet back at the guy with that flight path picture.

        I miss Boston. Loved that town.

          Indeed. It's a great city.

          New Orleans, Boston, Portland.

          All great cities.

          I'll take any of those over (insert your favorite city here:____________)

            I posted here several times about this flight 5 years ago - survey work over Boston, 2 nights, about 3 hours each at 1,500 feet.

            Here is the combined track for the 2 nights:

            But I don't think I posted this Tweet before. A man talking about a mysterious flight over Weld Street at 3 AM. I was over Weld Street at 3 AM, just a couple blocks from my mother's house.

              Boston is a city I would love to live in. I've loved all my visits there though I'll probably never see it again.

                Kluurs, it's a great place to vacation. History whale watching, fantastic restaurants, very walkable. It's pretty much got it all.

                  We like it here - I work very close to the airstrip which is just to the left of that flightpath.

                  Well, I used to a long, long time ago. Now I work in my dining room.

                  I was only joking

                    I can't believe it was almost 5 years ago that we got together there. D4 and I had a great time in that city. I would love to return some time.

                      Yes, that was fun. I think we've been to Boston a total of about 4 times since then, which is pretty sad.

                        I met Phibes in Boston many years ago. At a small deli (his wife/kids joined). 👍

                          God, that was ages ago - I think they were in pushchairs at that point - kids, not wife. My son turns 19 in July.

                            Damn, that’s insane. I’m fairly certain your son was like 6 years old or so.
