Remarks: 2 days before the 2013 Ky. Derby, are friends Nick & Bob watching landing aircraft for 17R, with a towed banner in the background flying over Churchill Downs just to the Northwest of the airport. Great spot, 38.186478, - 85.744192.
Remarks: Formerly DHL G-DHLJ, now belongs to Atlas Air. Crazy looking logo they have up front there. I guess they will repaint it later. Sorry for the cloudy conditions. Landing 18C.
Remarks: Formerly Delta Airlines from 1986 - 2007, returned to lessor, then in 2009 converted to SF for Capital Cargo in Miami, Fl. Here she is landing on a runway ( 18R) that I haven't photographed in about 3-4 years due to slowed economy, etc. Pilot requested runway 18R for training purposes I think. After the tower cleared him for landing, it took him for ever to bring it home. I thought he got lost. It was worth the wait and I'm glad he made the runway change.
