Im just wondering. And what are some good spots to get good views other than Udvar hazy center. I'd rather not wait in line to go up and see, especially as I have school that day, and I dont want to miss it.

Its coming in as the noon time slot is what I have read. I will be up there most likely if they look to be on the 1's.
As for other places to shoot, perhaps somewhere off of Route 50...
Noon?!?! I thought it was taking LH418/419's place! That comes in at 3:45! Im just praying my information is correct, as I really want to see it.
They are taking 418/419's slot, but it has been said that for the Inaugural flight on June 1st, they will be arriving in the noon time slot. I will try and find the source for that, but it was either over on airliners.net or from someone in the washbalt spotters group.
Well... Take lots of pictures. I guess I'll be seeing it the next day.
I can confirm that D-ABYA will arrive as LH416 with an ETA of 12:45pm. The aircraft will then depart as LH419 at 17:55. She will be parked at gate B45/B47.
Can you confirm whether or not she'll use runway 1R for departure if the 1's are active :biggrin:
I get so bummed every time the 744 takes 30 for departure.
A 747-8i on a 1R departure would be phenomenal.
More often then not I've seen LH419 use 1R when the 1's are in use, however we won't know until the day of. If I hear anything I will post an update.
They actually take the 30? Personally, I like when 1R is used for landings, because then I can actually see them from my house, but if 1R is used for departures that day, I wouldnt mind going up 50 to see them if I could get out of school.Quote:
