Anything that flies in the sky makes my heart flutter.

I had the pleasure of flying the flutter plane

Aiden, it was genuinely good of you to volunteer your skills and support those teams that did not have pilots. I commend you on your excellent flying skills, even for aircraft that did not seem airworthy. You also deserve credit for helping guide them through fixes to pass tech or repairs after errant flight attempts. Good on you.

@@StudioJooj It was a blast to attempt to fly and assist the teams. Looking forward to Arizona next year! Thank you for standing in harms way to capture some of the spectacular unplanned disassemblies.

I was the pilot of the first plane taking off and the last plane landing, same plane, Notre Dame University. I'm wearing the red ball cap at the end of the clip. It's been an honor and a pleasure working with these brilliant, young people and I'm looking forward to Tucson 2025.

I somehow didn't realize that those were the same airplane while editing this video. Thank you sir for your support of the students at DBF. I was excited to end the video with that clip - the very last flight of the competition, and a great contrast between your humble stoicism and the students' hardly-contained excitement. See you in Tucson 2025!

Did you get to fly for any of the teams?

I flew for UMKC and RMIT. We finished all three missions for RMIT, but I botched the short field takeoff for UMKC and didn't get them any score for Mission 3.

ERAU's plane was unincumbered by the wind

This reminds me of my favorite riddle. If a Riddle airplane was riding on a giant conveyor belt that was designed to exactly match the wheel speed, would the airplane takeoff before the pilot mentioned he was a Riddle graduate and that this is not how the riddle goes?
