Hello!

My name is Sam Aldridge. I am a professional Glassblower and have been so for about 15 years. Glass has been an amazing way for me to travel abroad and see things from so many different perspectives. I am also an avid aviation enthusiast. Grew up with my father restoring WWII aircraft and the like. With all of this in mind, drones seemed like a logical fit.

I currently own a Mavic 3 Classic, an Avata, and a Mini2. I've only flown for about 2 years, but I'm seriously looking to better understand flying drones as a whole and just have a lot of fun in the process. Though I am based in the Springfield, MO area, most of my work takes me through western Europe and as my fiancée lives in Brazil, I spend a good amount of time there as well.

I only found this forum recently, but it seems like there are quite a few dedicated pilots and some seriously good information here. I'm looking forward to seeing what this community has to offer and hoping that somehow I can contribute as well.

Stay well,
Sam

Hello from the Crossroads of America SamAldridge

Nice to meet you Sam. 🤝

I am a professional Glassblower and have been so for about 15 years.

That's one fascinating hobby.

I've watched videos and knew someone a while back that did this. She sold her artwork to stores and festivals.

The 3-D marbles were mind blowing.

That's a good combination of aircraft to capture content.

Welcome to the Forum. :cool:

Welcome from Savannah, GA!
Consider yourself lucky you found these guys around here. They are slap full of knowledge.

I'm just the color commentary guy... eh

Welcome to the Forum.
Have you met Carl Ittig yet?
What WWII aircraft did you and your dad work on? Very interesting.
