My dad (yes, my dad) use to fly in the early days of aviation. These arrows were very important to him. At the end of WW1, he was a flight instructor at the Presidio in San Francisco. His C.O. was 'Hap' Arnold. After his discharge in 1920, and a stint as the head of the 'air force' in El Salvador, he flew early airmail in the mid to late 20s (Jenny's)... first Detroit/Chicago, via stops throughout Michigan. Then, up/down the west coast (Ryans, Junkers, Fokkers), Seattle/San Fran and Sacramento/San Fran/San Diego. Made three jumps due to engine failure/out of gas, and two crashes, both of which he (obviously) survived. Then, early passenger/freight (TriMotors) in the Midwest and the West Coast. Early ALPA member, 3-time qualifier of Caterpillar Club, and one of the earliest 'Quiet Birdmen'. Also, believed to be one of the first IFR instructors. He finished his career as the chief pilot for the old AutoLite Co., in Toledo, Ohio. Of course, all this happened long before I was around. He was 20 years older than my mother, and I was last of three to be born. He passed in the late '50s. His close and longtime friend, Bill Lear, delivered his eulogy. He called him a pilot's pilot, and probably one of the most important aviators you never heard of. I’m thrilled to see so much interest in the golden age of aviation that my dad was a part of. Too many things get passed up in the supersonic world of today.

I can vividly remember still seeing some of those arrows from my grandpas plane when I was a kid back in the late sixties and early seventies. He even pointed them out and told this very story about them. I had not recalled those memories until just now watching this video. Over fifty years of hidden memories rushing forward. Wow!

4:00 I think that's the first arrow I ever found! It's in St George, Utah and has a plaque (it looks like a gravestone imo) that gives some info about the aviation arrows. The plaque starts off "Utah Is Rich In Aviation History" and has a picture of an old airplane. Super cool! There are 3 or 4 others in the area, and around a dozen or two in the state.

"juice has just as much sugar in it as soda" True, but it's not always the same kind of sugar While a lot of juices contain processed sugars (and also are usually only 20% juice, so really it isn't juice at all) a lot also tend to contain unprocessed sugars While too much of any kind of sugar is bad for you, unprocessed sugars are broken down differently by the body and contain less empty calories (less _empty_ calories, an important distinction to remember)

In contexts other than baseball (and baby talk), the principal parts of the verb to fly are fly flew (have) flown The bird flew the coop. The hunter flew the hawk at a pigeon. Charlie has flown his kite into the kite-eating tree again. The honeymooners flew to Paris in the springtime. We have flown with American five times. In baseball, however, flied becomes valid usage. A fly or a fly ball is a baseball hit into the air. www.dailywritingtips.com/fly-flew-has-flown-flied/

Check out the arrow & mileage below it, all "written" in large white stones: PHX / 70, or Phoenix (Arizona) / 70 air miles. Indicator is located in a huge meadow called Dickenson Flat.

The arrow at 4:03 St. George Utah. There are 4 in the city/surrounding areas.. NONE of the maps he shows go through my city. They only show the Salt lake city route. Also Bunkerville NV, which he mentions, isn't in any of the maps he shows. Clearly there is a southern route not mentioned
