I took a trip to KPDV Providence, RI to get the Mexican Air Force 727-200. This aircraft has evaded me for 8 years now and I am happy I can finally add it to my collection of special aircraft. Aircraft Reg is 3506 on route ADW-PVD. I couldn't get there in time for the arrival- not that it mattered anyway....When I was there Visibility was 1sm, 100ft ceilings, Drizzle and Mist.
Two new 727s in less than 2 weeks..not too bad.

Ya think?

I do! :D

Even when living in Worcester MA 40 minutes away I probably wouldn't've gone in bad weather!

Thanks Guys,
Well you know if the sun had been out no shots would have been possible. So I thank the bad weather for being there :) So many of my shots in the past would have been for not if the clouds were not present.

Mark,
When I left it looked as it it would be there for a day or so. I wonder where ti will go to next.

That can be very true indeed.

Where did you take this shot from? I don't recognize the spot.
