With this issue, it's almost all she wrote for 2025. 💥 We kick off with Editor @terencecgannon.com enthusing about Japanese animé. He then takes a crack at the practice of directly linking press releases and then wraps up with the first annual Roy Bishop Stokes Aviation Book Christmas List. | 🛩️ 🥇

Hey, @talkhoops.bsky.social: based on last night's fixtures, at least, the @nba.com Cup games seem to be taking on a distinctly All-Star, all-uncontested offense, no-defense vibe. Thoughts? 🤔 Or maybe it's just me. 🤡 | 🏀

Amongst the gaggle of 172s chugging around the circuit today at Springbank, there was this very unusual sighting: a Seawind 3000, which its manufacturer bills as « world's fastest amphibious aircraft. » It certainly seemed quite spry on departure. | 🛩️ 🦆 📹 📍 🇨🇦 | 🔗 seawindaero.com?utm_source=t...

These Pilatus' PC-12s are really elegant-looking aircraft. Also, I can somehow imagine a through line from my own modest piloting accomplishments to at least the right seat in one of these. Probably not, but I'd like to think it might be so, regardless. | 🛩️ 📍 🇨🇦
