MCO - 10/1/07

Unfortunately what little time I had to get some shots at MCO was hampered by a thunderstorm which completely doused the airport around 5:00pm. Anyway, I did manage to get a couple shots prior to that.

Nice shots Flynavy.
You said Condor will be replaced with Lufthansa later this month?

Yes, the Condor flight to FRA will be replaced by a Lufthansa A330-300 effective 10/29/07.

Darn,
I need to get the Thomas Cook (Blue Colors) still. I have the one with the Basic Condor (yellow colors) though.

I'm in contact with the GOAA about getting on the ramp to shoot the A330 arrival. You gonna be in town around then? It arrives at 6:15pm from FRA.

[SengaB]

I should be in town then. Might be heading back north fro a bit soon after though.

That is a strange twist considering Condor was bought by LTU and Lufthansa sold them off over a year ago.
