Notes:

Probably one of my best and favorite photos from last year shows "United 1881 Heavy" (UAL1881) taxiing to runway 34R on taxiway "Charlie" while kicking up dust and scaring up a couple of Mallards as it spooled up to start moving again after holding for traffic. This is a rare sight that I doubt will be seen again any time soon as most heavies would use 34L but, due to part of the runway being reconstructed all flights had to use 16L/34R. Most commercial flights would use the taxiway on the other side of the field and cross over to 34R, but since UAL1881 was parked at the Atlantic Aviation ramp below the control tower on the east side of the field, they used taxiway "Charlie" which comes VERY close to the perimeter fence and created this awesome and noisy scene!
