It was very exciting to capture two days of Aerial video and stills of this most impressive - Deme's Sea Installer that just arrived in Salem. The Crowley folks are great to work with.

The sky is no longer the limit.

Flying today. Parked near a jet made by Honda - called the HondaJet. Amazingly ahead of its time uses a very unique engine placement using pylons mounted on the wing structure. I had the little white and blue Warrior with the prop on the front however.

This is a Pano from the work with MerryFox Realty. The Elbridge can be seen in the lower center left in context with the sweeping view of Marblehead.

There's nothing better than ocean side flying on a beautiful day. Can you spot YOUR house?

What we have here is almost 200 cars in line for a Salem residents Covid test. You can actually see only 100 or so of them as the line extends out of frame to the bottom right towards the power plant. These cars wind all the way to the end of restaurant row and head back again towards Dead Horse beach which is where the testing took place.

The finished groundwork at the Footprint Salem Power Plant is really taking hold. The owners went above and beyond to establish such a beautiful aesthetic. This place is actually nice to be around and look at now.

Periodically we share a status shot of a local project here in Salem MA. This was taken a the end of January of the Salem plant and believe it or not, there's been a ton of progress since this.

Notable in this shot are the completed berms and landscaping on the perimeter of the plant and the wide open cleared west lots.

Now, just weeks later the white storage building is gone, and the chain link perimeter fencing is almost down revealing the administration building on Derby Street.

Looking west to east at 200' from the southwest side.

Ford has always been a leader and mentor for General Aviation. As a pilot, this short piece resonates with me. New general aviation pilots have been decreasing and this short is a great way to entice the next generation to participate. Thanks.

Tall ship at Pickering wharf in Salem. As you may know, "Our" ship - the Friendship is mastless at the moment, but there was a visiting ship in today that was very impressive.

Some info about it:

The original Kalmar Nyckel was one of America’s pioneering colonial ships, a Mayflower of the Delaware Valley, yet her remarkable story has never been widely told.

The original ship — a new type of gun-armed merchant vessel called a Dutch Pinnace — was built by the Dutch in Amsterdam in about the year 1625. She was purchased in 1629 by a Swedish consortium to serve as an auxiliary warship for the Swedish navy, which she did until her decommissioning in 1651 — except for the years from 1637 to 1644 when she sailed the Atlantic for the New Sweden Company. An exceptional ship with a long and remarkable career, she was sold to a private merchant after being decommissioned from the navy. No completely definitive records have been uncovered as of yet, but Kalmar Nyckel was probably resold to the Dutch navy as an es**rt vessel and sunk in the North Sea while fighting for the Dutch in a war against the English in 1652.
