Remarks: Unusual arrival time and flight number of Royal Jordanian. Flight RJA 8263 as first saturday flight on final 28 at early morning. Second flight RJA263 will arrive 9 hours later.
Remarks: Brand new QANTAS A380 leaving LAX for a short trip north to SFO with actors John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John on board. Note you are looking at engine #2, which, on November 4, 2010, ripped apart after takeoff, some two years after this image was taken. Take a look at those bright blue exhaust cones! (1200x800 pixels)
Remarks: Something to brighten up the otherwise miserable day (weather wise that is). With a heavy-duty garbage bag protecting my camera from the heavy rain, I was able to shoot OQA as she lifted up right in front of the drenched crowd, spraying up water and obscuring the background completely! Vortices can also be seen passing over the leading edge of the wing [EOS 450D 1200px]
