Boeing Field

But there's another thing we should mention from previous episodes, especially on Flight Pass, the shared airspace study.

It matters because whenever people go on endlessly about Flight Pass, they're always asking, why, why, why? Meaning, why does all the traffic go here? Why not more, you know, spread the wealth, Boeing Field, Payne Field, JBLM, you know, why, why, why? And this is a bit like cop plan discussions.

People will talk about dark forces in local government.

There are trends and plans, whatever you want to call it, that go back decades.

The facility at Sandpoint, we're told, is full.

We're told they did not create another one at Boeing Field.

So why didn't the police department arrest the anarchists when they moved out of that building? Well, that's a question a lot of people are asking, especially since the West Precinct is just down the block.

We asked the police department this weekend.

And then I explain, and then when I do, they go, oh, okay, that makes sense.

So I realized we kind of live in a little different culture of obedience to the Lord, but it comes from 37 years of obeying the Lord, understanding that right after we got saved, The first assignment was we're going to bring 747s out of Boeing Field in Seattle, Washington, where we lived, take them to Russia, load them up with Jewish people, according to Isaiah 60, and incorporate with the Jewish agency to bring them into Tel Aviv, Israel at Ben-Gurion Airport.

So that was like the first assignment.

And it would have been easy to say, you know, that's never going to happen.

And I decided that I wanted to fly, but I wanted to fly helicopters more so because I understood them as a tool.

So that became the first undertaking where in Seattle at Boeing Field for a year and a half or so full time, I just committed and really dove deep and then got a commercial ticket with the intent to either one teach, which most people do.

or I really wanted to focus on aerial imaging.

So I ended up working about one or 2,000 hours with a company doing aerial imaging out of small two-place helicopters.

Well, a securitist route is definitely your pathway.

It's interesting.

And you spent time in Boeing Field, driven by it many times.

And then you got your boating license.

So we'll continue to read names throughout this process and work towards getting almost 8,000 names that we're responsible for on this journey.

So then we're going to also lay some cranes down at this monument here for Boeing Fields in honor of those who are being pulled in and out on the ice flights.

And then we're going to sing our song.

Here and now We walk for healing Show us how We remember Your dignity Kodomo no tameni Here and now, we walk for healing.

Why is that important?

That importance really comes from my experience as a, uh, flight instructor back at, um, Boeing Field in Seattle, my first CFI job, where I wasn't doing anything in high schools.

I was just doing your run-of-the-mill flight instruction, which was such a great experience.

I got to meet so many amazing people, but I realized through that, that a lot of people show up, you know, with a wad of cash and a dream, with no idea of the time and the, the commitment that it really takes to do this right.

Seattle.

It's some of the most beautiful flying that I've ever done.

Obviously, the wintertime, it gets a little bit challenging to go VFR, but flying in and out of, of Boeing Field in Seattle was probably the most memorable portion of my career so far.

And for folks who haven't flown in that part of the world, where are some great places to go around there?

You leave me out of it.

Well, here we are, Boeing Field.

All right.

And there it is.

I'm interested in getting the facts.

Someone else decides what's right and what's wrong.

From Boeing Field, I drive clear back across town and up the counterbalance to the Queen Anne branch of the library to see if Murphy's turned up anything more on Ivar Lindahl.

No, but I thought this might be useful.

He set up again, and he rolled it a second time, going the other direction.

Then he flew back to Boeing Field, shut down the engines, and went home for dinner.

The phone rang the next morning.

It was Bill Allen's secretary.

He didn't go on the lecture circuit for years playing the clip.

He went back to work.

He went back to Boeing Field and kept flying.

He flew the Dash 80 for another year before Boeing retired the prototype in 1959.

You know, it's all the little planes.

And then we would fly over to Boeing Field.

Oh, yeah.

And, and that was strategically not far from KeyArena at the time.

Man

... yeah, it was, it was awesome.

So I've, I've been to Boeing Field a couple of times.

Couple times.
