Remarks: Waiting to get parked after the ramp reopens once lightening subsides. The lightening equipment detected hundreds of hits within the fence during this storm. After about 30 minutes of watching it go I finally went out to take some pics. Quite a sight indeed. This strike was just outside the perimeter fence to the East.
Remarks: KLM785 from AMS low over the beach. I love this angle. Taken while standing knee deep in the water. What an incredible, great place. Gonna have to go back.
Remarks: A special lineup courtesy of DFW operations. Big thanks to the tower folks, the best in the business. Unfortunately the sun didn't cooperate and the day could not have been more drab. N908NN, N951AA, N845NN lined up.
Remarks: Got talking to 5 people at the beach who turned out to be crew from Lauda Italy. They came down to the beach in uniform for this shot of the aircraft they would be departing on in a couple hours passing overhead. Nice! Thanks guys!
Remarks: N207UA freshly painted in Royal Brunei colours arrived back at AFW on the 28th of April from KARA. Seen here along with N770UA and N767UA still wearing RG colours. Didn't get the registration on the AA 777 rounding out the foursome.
Remarks: The much-anticipated 10 abreast Coach class. With the features this is definately an upgraded product. This cabin shot is for you, Andy Egloff!
Remarks: B-2727 takes off from KFTW under a special ferry permit to KPAE flying under temp registration N1014X. Hopefully this won't be the only one flying for months from now.
Remarks: 7BU departs on her first revenue flight wearing the ribbon. 175 to NRT, helping to raise breast cancer awareness along with the Susan G. Komen foundation.
