I’m pretty certain it was Alan we were watching coming in for a landing in the CAP Cessna. We just happened to be flying around in the area, as we often did on the weekends.

Music: “Coming in to Land” by Badly Drawn Boy*

* I electronically stitched these two flying clips together and was looking for an instrumental with the unlikely runtime of 1:38. I did a sort by time in iTunes and happened upon this Badly Drawn Boy piece that was nearly the same length, from their album “Have You Fed the Fish?” and the title was, coincidentally, “Coming in to Land”. The other coincidence is the rather ominous-sounding ending starts right when Alan reaches the runway. I had to laugh — it sounded like it was all on purpose (and suggested that the landing was in question!), but it was just a string of coincidences.
