Notes:

McCarran Airport has been abuzz the last week with military movements, as Red Flag (the bi-annual war games at Nellis AFB) is underway. This particular refueller, from Grissom AFB, is giving the folks at the MGM Grand a view as she departs runway 1L. This photo is dedicated to Elliot Epstein, who gave me a heads up on Saturday morning for all of the additional military traffic at LAS.

Non-stop action at Haneda on a stunningly beautiful winter morning as an ANA 767 rolls out on runway 34L and a JALExpress 737 begins its taxi with the increasingly-bustling international Terminal 3 in the background
