Planespotting at Boeing Plant / Paine Field Airport

Boeing's largest and most important production facility is located about 50 kilometers north of Seattle. The Boeing 747, 767, 777 and 787 wide-bodied aircraft are manufactured in the second largest building in the world right next to Paine Field Airport (Snohomish Country Airport). As with every visit to Seattle, this time we were at the Boeing plant for plane spotting.

In this article you can find out what our experiences were like on the flight, in the hotel and while sightseeing in Vienna with a small child.

But not only the evacuation via the emergency slide of an Airbus A380 is part of the training plan, the make-up and the service also want to be perfected. I was able to take a look behind the scenes at the Singapore Airlines Training Center.

Washington DC – Sights in the rain

Before heading home on Sunday afternoon, I really wanted to take the opportunity to see the sights of Washington D.C. and check out the National Air and Space Museum at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and it rained all day.

Family vacation on the sunny island of Usedom

The sunny island of Usedom lives up to its name. We drove towards the Baltic Sea in the worst of the rain and as soon as we passed the bridge to the island, we had a bright blue sky and the sun was smiling at us. Perfect! That's how it should be.
