[1400px] One of my favorite pictures, a very special one! Centurion used to come by for a fuel stop between Amsterdam and Campinas, and this was their very first time here. These fuel stops didn't last long, though. It was wonderful to see their beautiful MD-11Fs, specially because the MD-11 is my 2nd favorite plane. In this pic, their trijet pushes back to Campinas at 2AM, continuing the CWC4853 flight. Sadly, this MD-11 suffered a landing incident at Campinas and was written off. I'm glad I could catch this beauty before her terrible demise.
