Remarks: CO19 (LGW-EWR) … an impressive baseline to the thick blanket of cloud which we broke through about 20 minutes from touch down (see next in series ... Click Here).
Remarks: Crossing the Rockies with a fifth engine, not uncommon in the early 747 days when hot starts and other problems required ferrying powerplants to repair stations.
Remarks: With only 60 passengers onboard this evening, things were pretty quiet all the way to Chicago. In fact, I took the liberty of raising the armrests in my row and sprawling out across the three empty seats for a nice long nap right after taking this picture. What I force myself to do for you folks... :-)
