Great work John! Over the past few weeks I have seen a few shots of the Lufthansa 747-400s I believe. Are they back on the route for portions of the week?

Great shots, John. I'm glad you got a shot of the Astrojet from yesterday. I was hanging around the Georgetown waterfront and saw her come in overhead. I'm really not taking advantage of the great spotting opportunities around here!

those are some sick DCA banking shots! The Astrojet looks insane like that

Thanks everyone!

Thanks Nick, I think they are during some weekdays, I saw one the other day after the Ethiopian 787 landed.

Thanks Gordon, I have some free time during the day this semester and I'm trying to get as much spotting in while I have it. We should hit up Gravelly point some time!

Hmmm, thanks for the info John. Y'all will have to let me know if a group meetup at KIAD/DCA/BWI is in order st some point. Should have a few weeks once the Semester ends here in TX.

Nick, the 747-8 is down to 5 weekly flights for the winter season.

And John, definitely! As you can see from my FB I took a brief outing this afternoon.

Nice set of images. The retro birds are to drool for!

Wow! .. that astro jet sure looks nice making the turn for 19. Awesome capture!

Love the USCG Gulfstream and 757 banking shot! Great job!
