http://mashable.com/2015/03/13/flight-radar-penis/Aviation fans who on Thursday night happened to check FlightRadar24 the popular site that gives users the ability to track the flight paths of planes around the world might have noticed an odd pattern that a private plane made above Florida.
If you haven't noticed just yet, it greatly resembles a penis.
While it's unknown whether this particular pilot was aware that he or she was drawing a sky penis (come on, they had to know), it's definitely hilarious.
Hmmmm. I see Orlando on the map. Could it be a map of... Florida?

(14,691 posts)don't they have to file a plan with the air traffic controllers? Don't the air traffic controllers have to be able to know where a pilot plans to go and how s/he plans to get there? I can't imagine them sitting by idly watching this. It's like an episode in AIRPLANE!

(36,818 posts)Flight plans are only required under certain circumstances like flying into reduced visibility conditions and certain airspace areas like above 18,000'. You can fly coast to coast without ever talking to a controller.

Maybe when I worked with aviatian types at NTSB, though I was mostly in surface modes. I was partnered with a retired commercial TWA pilot on one aviation safety task force, and he told me a lot of stories as we traveled to some GADOs and FSDOs around the country.
Or maybe it came up in news panels an air crashes. I don't remember. But in any case, this ground pounder was aware of pitot tubes.

(53,339 posts)It was a reference to what happened to him when he was wounded. But I don't know if he was from Lakeland.

There's a guy (probably related to the TBN owner) who flies over the Disney area every weekend skywriting things like GOD = LOVE or JESUS =
Can see that crap from my house sometimes if he's on the northern edge of Disney property.
