Spotting Log: KRSW

Fort Myers, Florida: It was a fun week this week at Southwest Florida International Airport. The flight schedules continue to grow as do the aircraft. This week Air Canada snuck in a pair of mainline A-321’s in the new livery in place of the typical Air Canada Rouge birds. Even the Air Canada Rouge birds remained the beefed up wide-body Boeing 767. JetBlue continues to cycle A321neo’s through RSW as well. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the week came when a squadron of A-10 Thunderbolts snuck in from Fort Wayne Indiana, while I only got a pic of 2 of the 4, it was still an amazing sight.

  For many years, a towering, iconic Sorcerer's Hat served as the unmistakable central landmark for Disney's Hollywood Studios (formerly MGM Studios), drawing visitors deep into the park's vibrant heart. The hat, an enormous, three-dimensional representation of the magical cap worn by Mickey Mouse in his role as the Sorcerer's Apprentice from the classic film Fantasia , was initially erected as a centerpiece for the park's 100 Years of Magic celebration, honoring the centennial of Walt Disney's birth. Its prominent placement quickly cemented its status.

Its design featured bold colors, stars, and the moon...
