I'm really, really hoping they weren't there to support Doug Philips (who is a rapist and a tool).

Well, they all know each other and Michelle was there Mother of the Year. So, it's possible. Maybe it was for something else.

The plane has been stationary in Kennett, MO (bootheel region) for the last month. Repairs? Inspection? Who knows.

This week he flew to TN with a five-hour side trip to North Carolina. I wonder what that's about. Is that long enough for him to do anything in NC? Or just drop someone off and take off again. It seems like a long layover if it's just a pitstop? I don't really know about these things. Looks like he spent the night at chez Bates and flew home the next morning.

Idle speculation bus: Someone's courting a Daming! Or doing chalk art training. :lol: ati.iblp.org/ati/students/opportunities/chalkart/overview/

I love it when you post his flights!!!!

That means nothing. A friend of mine who is a pilot tells me it is possible to fly multiple times without it showing up on Flight Aware.

If a pilot doesn't file a flight plan, he can fly without being on record. At least, JD is (apparently) being sensible and filing flight plans.

That makes sense, and is good to know. I'm a little surprised that filing flight plans isn't a requirement. In any case, I did find another flight tracking website, and this one shows the history going back at least four months:

You don't have to file a flight plan to show up on FA, either. It's more a matter of how the radar services are handling the aircraft.

Would JD's plane be trackable by Flightaware if he wasn't using ADS-B?

Who are the Damings?

[Buzzard]

I wonder if he's taken a side gig shuttling FRC people (or Duggars) around for speaking engagements.

Who are the Damings?

They're a fundie family who lives in North Carolina. Related to Scott Brown by marriage, so VF/NCFIC, not ATI/IBLP. They don't get discussed much here, but they're the most well-known NC fundie family on my spreadsheet. IDK if they're listed on our eligible for courtship thread, so here's a rundown of the over-eighteens:

Erica, 28-ish

Elizabeth, 4/88

Monica, 7/90, married David Brown

Corissa, 9/92

Heidi, 20-ish

Danielle, 19-ish

They're all still single afaik, except for Monica, who had her fourth baby recently.

24 and 4 babies? WTH

I'm joining Sassy in her corner with this one? 24 and FOUR BABIES?!

Jill must be so jealous... or alternatively... inspired?

The NCFIC folks try to keep a low profile since VF crashed and burned, but Monica and David wedding talk started on yuku, here: http://freejinger.yuku.com/topic/1405#.VO1H2vnF_uM

*Sorry for the thread derail; it was just a lame joke about why John David might be in North Carolina. I would update JD's flight history to get back on topic, but he hasn't flown anywhere since last time!

[halcionne]

JD was in the air yesterday. http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N68SY/history

I don't have screenshots, sorry. Maybe one of you guys can take some? I like to document the flight history here because it drops off of flightaware after 30 days. But my laptop is on the fritz and is barely limping along while I consider my options, since I can't afford to take it to the shop right now.

I know very little about flying and traffic control and that sort of thing, and I have a lot of logistical questions about JD's trip yesterday. He flew from Springdale to Fredricksburg, then from Headwaters to San Antonio; naturally taking the same course back to Springdale. But how did the plane get from Fredricksburg to Headwaters? Google maps tells me that's twenty miles away. Do private planes get towed? And why jump through so many hoops to get to San Antonio? Towing the plane halfway there--if that's what happened--seems kind of pointless.

Unless the plane itself had to be in SA for some reason? Years ago I had an acquaintance who flew for a hobby, and he said it's difficult for private planes/small craft to fly in and out of SFO (my local international airport), so I can see that getting to San Antonio proper might be a challenge, but I was under the impression that JD lands as close as he can and his passengers' hosts might have to drive an hour or two to pick them up. :think:

:pink-shock: A new christian film festival in San Antonio? I wonder if they'll be giving out pedo-riffic award statues.

From the 'about' page:

The Christian Worldview Film Festival was started in 2014 by the non-profit ministry Media Talk 101 to encourage Christian Filmmakers in their Biblical worldview and the craft of filmmaking. The inaugural five day event featured 33 speakers who gave over 50 unique workshops on Christian filmmaking and presented 80 Christian films which played on six different screens. The week ended with an awards ceremony with 13 different awards and a total of $6500 in prizes. The Film Festival had 700 registered attendees for our first year and we anticipate more in attendance for 2015. The Festival will be held March 10th-14th, 2015 in San Antonio, TX.

We were able to provide a fantastic conference at a reasonable price and this was made possible by a network of over 100 volunteers, event sponsors, vendors, and the hard work from the small staff at Media Talk 101. Please take a moment to watch the highlights video on the homepage if you have not done so already.

Sponsered by Samaritan Ministries: "a biblical, non-insurance approach to health care needs."

Who, or what, is Media Talk 101? (There is a link that I will follow as soon as I get this thread started.)

I wonder if it's DPIAR's party, wrapped in new paper and ribbons. One of the featured filmmakers is long-time VF favorite, Ken Carpenter. :ew: Only $6500 in prizes; that's a far cry from the $101,000 grand prize at the SAICFF or whatever the fuck it was called. And most importantly, are the statuettes as pervy as Dougie's were? :mouse-shock:

Apparently, some Duggars are at this festival.

This is their second year -- I'm sure their founding was just coincidental to the timing of VF's implosion. :wink-kitty:

If you won a ticket to this festival and were invited as a guest to sit through one of these movies - what method of suicide would you choose? Dying of boredom is horrible, slow and painful.
