DENVER UPDATE:
Weather looks HOT in Denver. 96 on Sunday and 93 on Monday. I am 50/50 on the Denver trip right now.
While some people don't mind hot conditions with no shade....I do. And my equipment does not function well in it.
Quite frankly, if you'll forgive me...I work in the heat 40 hours a week in Tucson so I am not a fan of flying somewhere just to be in the heat again.
Plan B is if we postpone the Denver trip, I will be headed to Southern California for a 1-2-3 show. 3 different airports in 3 days.
Thanks for your understanding. Maybe I just need to put on my big boy pants and deal with it. The people who can handle it for hours at a time, please give me your secrets LOL. I bow to your superiority.
Forgive me for sounding like a grinch. But I am only a human. You will always know where Pip stands and how I feel on things if you ask.
I just always want to go full throttle for ya. And give my full effort.
Sincerely,
-The Pispter

QUESTION ABOUT MERCHANDISE:
Is there anything that you would like to see offered for merchandise that hasn't be created yet? We now have a hat, coffee cup, many t-shirts and stickers.
Speaking of stickers...Did I tell you I am creating a sticker for each of the airports that we have broadcasted live from?
That means almost 50 individual stickers and they will look something like this. Here are a few of the previews. I expect I will be done with all the designs sometime in July.
Don't forget, DENVER this Monday and Tuesday and maybe even Sunday unless a technical calamity or illiness. Please pray for cool weather and no rain. I hope all of you can make the show(s).
We will most likely be broadcasting from either the parking garage or the outdoor decks at the airport.

WE SURE WOULD HAVE BEATEN THE RECORD!
If it wasn't for my technical hiccup on Monday, I KNOW we would have beat the like record of 514 for sure! So a big THANK YOU to all of you who were kind enough to contribute, join and like the show from Monday.
How exciting is it that we get to bring you live coverage from awesome airports all over the country?!?
FYI I wanted to touch base on a couple of things really quick.
1. I just posted my arrival video from the window seat into San Diego. Notice how low the clouds were.
2. Our travel schedule still shows Denver this weekend but there are a couple of important things I need to talk about in regards to DEN.
-It is supposed to be very hot...95 degrees on Sunday, which is not ideal for streaming, especially with no shade. So, if you could pray for a cold front or something, I sure would appreciate it.
-DEN is the largest land sized airport in the United States and have runways on each side of the concourses. That means or spotting will be limited at times to one side or the other. So I ask for your understanding in advance that I am not able to get everything we want.
3. I am going to be testing some advertising changes on the live streams. That means you MAY get a few more ads during the live broadcast. I have to find ways to cover my costs when traveling beyond Tucson and support the costs associated with the channel.
Thank you to those who help in that. I CANNOT do it without you. End of story. so thank you sooooo very much.
4. I will be introducing new lower prices on t-shirts for our store EXCEPT for "The Original" Pip Hastings Aviation t-shirt.
click the link below and you will see most T-Shirts(from small to XL)going from $24.99 down to $19.99+shipping. It should be active as you read this.
Here is the store link.

In the meantime, please let me know which airport gets on your nerves about spotting there. I want to be an advocate for you all and help where I can. In the meantime, I will start chargin the batteries for Denver. Please pray the weather cools off.
Sincerely,

SURVEY TIME:
I have known many of you for just over two years while many of you I've known for two weeks. But no matter how long I've known each of you, I believe we share a common passion of aviation.
My question is....since I've been On the Air and other live streamers, has your love and passion for aviation increased, decreased or remained the same?
What I'm really trying to determine is are you burnt out on aviation channels and live streams? Or do you still love it want more?
I'll go as long as I can as long as the love is there in my heart, which it still is.
But if you could please answer the poll question I would great appreciate it below.
And if you have any suggestions, let me know.
Sincerely,
-The Pipster

And I have a peak at our new sticker collection below. I am going to try and create a sticker for each airport that we have live streamed at.
This one is San Diego and is part of the Flight Club collection.
I look forward to seeing you all on Monday if not before then :)
Sincerely,

NEW PRODUCT ALERT: I have to admit, this shirt is pretty awesome! Thanks to Dreamweaver for letting me use her name sake.
Notice that this T-shirt is the FIRST to have the Pip Hastings Aviation logo on the left shoulder. Was it about $2.00 more? YES. Do I think it adds a little Panache'? Yes, yes I do.
Also, this gives me a chance to officially introduce you to Pip the Pilot one of the channel mascots. Sometimes he wears glasses, sometimes he doesn't.
Just like Pip the Pilot says, don't forget to LIKE and SUBCRIBE.
Here is the link to our store where you can purchase numerous shirts.
