GATE TO GATE | Reno (RNO) to San Francisco (SFO) | United Express Embraer E175LR

Join me as we depart Reno's Tahoe Airport at sunset to the south, fly past Mt. Houghton & Mt. Rose, then making a long right-hand turn over Lake Tahoe before chasing the sunset to the west. We get an amazing view of some brightly light clouds dubbed as 'Skyfire'. We then make a left-hand turn to head southwest at waypoint KO57E where we nearly parallel the Pacific Coast and get a great perspective of the cured Earth. As we begin our descent into San Francisco, we turn from a bright sunset into pure darkness as we enter the BDEGA3 arrival. We fly over the top of KSFO, then make a series of turns around the Bay Area before lining up for and touching down on SFO's runway 28L. As always, found below are important timestamps that may spark your interest. I hope you enjoy it!
