It's quite possible that today was my last visit to NUE before our move to Denmark, and I'm happy that I'm ending my time there on a high note.

Moving to a small town in Northern Jutland means moving far away from all airplane photography opportunities I enjoyed in Germany. So I'll be getting my daily dose of aviation from other sources, such as YouTube live streams from my favorite airports.

Yesterday, I discovered Mole. Running this deep clean and optimization command-line tool for the fist time reclaimed ~25GB storage space and removed a lot of junk. I also like its system monitor. In short, it's definitely a keeper.

The weather forecast promised +4°C. But somehow I missed the fact that it was going to be rather windy. I realized my mistake when standing at the rooftop of P2, waiting for a Boeing 737-800 operated by Alba Star (reg. EC-NAB) to depart for Venice.

On Sunday, I went to NUE to capture a Lockheed Martin KC-130J Hercules, and all I got was this below-average photo.

For some reason, I'm obsessed with camera battery chargers. Maybe it's because I can't find a perfect one. The Nitecore UNK2 battery charger came very close to my ideal charger, but the poorly designed USB cable ruined it. Plus, it could only charge one battery at a time, which was less than ideal.

With all the packing and other back-to-Denmark-related tasks, spare time has become a precious commodity. So I try to spend it on soothing activities like tweaking TERMINAL-1090. But instead of piling up new features, I'm simplifying the existing codebase.

We went to FRA for what is likely to be our last visit in the foreseeable future. The plan was to do some airplane photography on Saturday, and visit our favorite eateries afterwards.

My first visit of 2026 to NUE was a solid "meh" photography-wise. But the second visit last Friday didn't disappoint. My goal was to catch a rare visitor in our neck of the woods: an Airbus A320-200 operated by FLYONE Armenia (reg. no. ER-00007).

It's an adorable collectible trinket in its own right, but camera it ain't.

This most likely the last Aviationtag I bought while in Germany. It's also the nicest one in my collection. It's a GLARE edition, so it's a thick little sandwich. The color is more like mustard rather than gold, which I actually prefer.

I'm heavily relying on Breezy Weather for all my weather and forecasts needs. It's hands down the best weather app I've ever used. And I'd like to keep using, but Google's dumbfuckery makes it uncertain. You see, in its relentless pursuit of Verscheißung[1] Google has decided to make life harder for indie developers...
