Remarks: The Eskimo lets out one final roar and then all is quiet. A sight which will never be seen again, for after after a party at the gate and a water cannon salute, the aircraft would make its final flight to SEA. Around the same time, another mad-dog departed SMF also bound for SEA. These would be the final two flights of the Polar Mad Dogs. Hope the Eskimo packed some shorts, it don't snow in the desert.
Remarks: Taken from the small public park at the north end of SEATAC. One of the first shots of the day with nice low light and high humidity for vortices.
