Frequent app errors?

Does the app frequently have issues connecting to the server or is it just me? I'm connected to a stable wifi source, even tried data, and it's still having issues reaching the server. Needing to check in for tomorrow and I can't even get the app to function properly 🙄

NER 94, why are we waiting for permanent to cross a bridge in Fredericksburg?

Pic is from this morning in Norfolk. Currently stuck sitting in Fredericksburg for about 45 minutes and supposedly we're waiting for permission to cross a bridge? What bridge? Why is permission needed?

Do you ever search up regs on aircraft you've flown on or seen awhile back to see where they're at or their current status?

I used to keep tabs on N666US, a DL 747-400 I only ever got to see once in person at ATL back in 2014 or so. Sadly, scrapped, but there's others that I've seen still kickin' it, like these two. The AA MD-80 is currently parked apparently, not sure what future it has according to info online. And the Virgin 747-400 is with Atlas.

How early do you guys check in for sleepers?

I'm planning on riding the Southwest Chief later in September starting from Kansas City and since the train is set to depart after 9 PM (assuming it's on schedule lol), I wanted to do a lil explorin beforehand. How early do you guys check in (I guess I should say how early do you drop off luggage) if you're riding in a sleeper, or coach with checked luggage?

Best Museum in TX

Visited the Vintage Flying Museum in North Fort Worth, TX this past weekend. It's a really neat place. I jokingly say it's the beat Museum in Texas simply because of their resident feline security detail, i.e. Stormy lol

Stormy is a doll and follows you all over the place. Just don't let them into the hangar lol

Luggage on Northeast Regional

I know the NER doesn't have checked luggage, but do you still need to get your luggage tagged before boarding? I'm riding Norfolk to D.C. next week with luggage and was curious in case I needed to get it tagged. Appreciate any confirmation or advice!

Flew Frontier first time on Sunday

Flight was okay, didn't have any issues and the fare was arguably reasonable, pretty competitive honestly. Just wish my departure was after 10 AM so I could've gone to the DFW employee store before flying lol

Also I shared these with my mom and she absolutely adores the tail liveries, as do I lol

Visited Hiller Museum last October, do we count this 747 as an honorary PanAm 747?

Went to the Hiller Aviation Museum last October (hence the spooky scary skeleton on the roof lol). They repainted their 747 fuselage in Pan Am colors from its original Fly Tigers livery. Still has FTL memorabilia and exhibit inside. Couldn't get a straight answer when I asked why they did it. What do yall think about this? Do we accept this repainted 747 section an honorary Pan Am 747?
