‘Wrong way’

Hopefully this sign wasn’t meant for aircraft landing at National Airport in Arlington, Virginia ;-). I hate flying, which is bizarre given how we moved all over the world for almost 40 years, but I’m fascinated by aircraft and their incredible power, even more so when not inside a plane.

All too common a sight in DC, posted earlier:

Air travel has changed much, mostly for the better but in some ways not better.

Fun capture. I've only flown a few times, but always loved watching the planes come into Buffalo Int'l Airport with my dad as a kid.
