OK now you're just making sense :smile: but we all know some airlines are not that daring, which is a shame.

Rich ... Fantastic images. Sad to see that Air France retro heading to the boneyard. Props on the 707 shots!

Nice Shots Rich,
I shot that Chinese ACJ at EWR last week.

I did see the ORF VIP heading to the US and was hoping he was coming to NY, NJ but oh well.

That DC-9 is a good catch. Its still in the basic livery of "Legend Airlines" I shot that plane what is probably 13 years ago and its still in the same colors and titles still. Would be nice in a team theme.

[AA757]

Wow, awesome catches!!! Sad to see the retro go...

[Pack11Heavy]

Great set love the 707 shot

[hiss srq]

That private 757 was and might still be owned in part by the Clintons. A few years ago I recall talking to someone in the know on that bird.

[GY757]
