First and foremost, the Explaination of my User Name:
KPWM is the ICAO Code for the Portland International Jetport, the regional airport serving southern Maine. A Spotter, or "plane spotter" is a fan of aviation who watches, tracks and photographs aircraft. Thus, as KPWM_Spotter, I am an aviation fanatic whose local airport is KPWM.

[edit] About me

As mentioned above, I currently reside in Maine, in the suburb of Gorham. My real name is Kevin Porter, and I am currently studying at Gorham High School as a Junior. I am seventeen years old currently, and my hope is that no one will form any pre-conceived notions about me due to my age. I would like to think of myself as something other than your "average" teenager, but I will let my actions and edits on Wikipedia dictate how you think of me. See how a simple javascript and HTML test scores my personal philosophy.

[edit] Contact Information

As a Wikipedian I always assume good faith, but if you need to contact me for any reason, feel free to contact me via my Talk Page, or via E-Mail, or just drop a message if you feel like talking. I'll try to respond as soon as possible.

[edit] Wikipedia, and Me.

Aviation being a major hobby of mine, most of my Wikipedia edits fall under that broad general category. Following is a list of noteable edits of mine. Those in bold I have put a good amount of time into. Those that are both bold and italicized are articles which I have started from scratch.

[edit] Aircraft and Aviation

An Alaska Airlines 737, photographed in Seattle at sunset.

A Douglas DC-9 Aircraft serving as a military transport at the Brunswick Naval Air Station in Maine. This photo was taken from the catwalk of the now abandoned control tower at that airport.

A Lineup of the P3 Orions at Naval Air Station Brunswick. Taken from the same place as the previous photograph.

A Ryan Navion Aircraft on display at the 2004 Portland Jetport Aeronautical Exposition.

[edit] Anything Else

The Washington Monument as viewed at dusk from the Jefferson Memorial across the river.

This is what happens when you combine the half-assed flash on a Nikon Coolpix with a dark night: A really artistic looking shot of the Vietnam War Memorial.

This photo is of a robot which I have put more than enough of my free time into: "FALGOR" at the Granite State Regional FIRST Robotics competition.

A Casco Bay Lines ferry. One of many photos I took for Wiki in the summer of 2006 in Casco Bay.
