MIA Spotting 01/28 (Image Heavy!)

In my first spotting adventure of 2015 I spent the day down in MIA, a trip I had long been hoping to make. I flew into FLL and rented a car and made the short drive down to the MIA airport where the weather was perfect (albeit a little brisk for Miami). The airport was operating on runway 27/30 which meant that the "holes" and the El Dorado spot where out of commission. However, I was able to find a pretty decent vantage point to capture the many movements of the day! If you'd like to catch South American metal or AA metal before the livery transition is complete than I would highly recommend a trip down to Little Cuba. Enjoy. :)

Wow ... Truly jealous of all your shots! MIA is on my list, I hope to have the same success spotting. Well done!

Fantastic set! I will be down there in a few weeks, hopefully I can catch some of these, that sb 767 is awesome

Great set and an unusual spotting location. Where are you located, I'm guessing in a hotel room?

Great stuff Gordon!!!

Counting down the weeks till I am out there too! Nice set Gordon and only makes me want the days to go faster!

woah... so jelly!

This set is GOLD!

Thanks, gents! Still in disbelief as to how great of day it was. That's MIA for you.

Nice shots Gordon, it's cool to see pictures from that elevated perspective.

Man, that is some gooooood stuff!

Instead of starting a new thread with only a few days difference, I'm just going to continue here and add pics only not covered above. Miami is a must visit airport at least once a year. I am smacking my self for not being there all this years.
