What began as an NBC reporter's attempt to suggest NASCAR fans shouting "F@ck Joe Biden" were actually saying "Let's go Brandon!" - has been a viral sensation for a month and a half.
Fans at football stadiums across the country have chanted "F@ck Joe Biden" to voice their discontent with the president.
The speed at which "Let's Go Brandon," a coded vulgar insult towards the president, has spread throughout stadiums and social media has been astonishing.
One can buy "Let's Go Brandon" t-shirts, Christmas ornaments, stickers, and other merchandise to express how they feel about Biden. Even a "Let's Go Brandon" rap recently made it to the number 1 rap song on iTunes.
"F@ck Joe Biden" or "FJB" for short has also made it to the sky. On Nov. 10, a pilot operating a Cessna commuter plane with the tail number "N23508" was recorded by flight-tracking website FlightAware. What's unique about this plane's flight route is that the pilot drew FJB and a middle finger.

The pilot was at an altitude of 2,500 to 3,500 feet near Pheonix, flying around 85-100 mph for 37 minutes last week while they created their masterpiece in the sky. Here's a playback of the flight.

Vulgar insults directed at the president show an ultra-polarized country ahead of next year's midterms. So how long until the FAA interviews this pilot?
Poster Comment:
Cap'n Brandon isn't sure how this pilot pulled this off, but I suspect a handheld GPS was involved. Cap'n Brandon's crap ass planes were lucky to have any functioning nav gear outside of the compass and directional gyro.
Pilots lead the way.

Look at that, it's an old Cessna 150H taildragger. Looks to be set up for grass strips.
That must be something about the transponder. Not sure if that's something new or what?

I say it's too perfect for that, and the pilot would need to keep a watch out for other traffic, though it could have easily been 2 people working together. But it's still too perfect for manual flying.
I think it's done on autopilot with waypoints programmed into it.

I doubt a little 150 has an autopilot. There's some theories in the comments at ZH that seem pretty plausible.

He's coming into Seattle airport, only there is thick fog, less than 100 ft of visibility, and his instruments are out. So he circles around looking for a landmark. After an hour or so, he's pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. At last, in a small opening in the fog, he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around and winds down the window and shouts to the guy, "Hey! Where am I?", to which the solitary office worker replies, "You're in a plane". The pilot winds up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out. The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple," replies the pilot. "The answer he gave me was 100% correct, but absolutely useless; therefore, that must be Microsoft's Support Office and from there the airport is just 5 miles away on a course of 87 degrees! Any questions?"

A few seconds later, he comes back on and says, “I’m terribly sorry about what happened. I spilled some scorching hot coffee on my lap...you should see my pants!!” A voice from the back of the plane yelled, “Why don’t you come here and see ours?”

It'd really be impressive if he did it by dead reckoning...
Give me a Stopwatch and a Map and I'll fly the Alps in a plane with no windows
