well it may have been the 4th already but i was only leaving work so it's still the 3rd but who cares. new DAL colors A320. no idea what the reg was, it was dark and my truck was covered in a ton of ice.
I responded with it in the PHL 31 Jan 09 thread, but here it is for this one:Quote:

DL A319 N348NB was here today.
did anyone capture her???
Saturday Feb 7: The first NW A-319 in the new DL scheme made a visit today, not her first but the first for me. I found the A-320 very boring, to much white. As I expected, the 319 is not as bad, as there is less all white airplane, but the same amount of trim. If you look closely at the below photo, there is small writing under windows that are beneath the reg, it says "Operated by Northwest Airlines".

It appears to be in the same place on the A-320, while this is standard practice in a pre merger it seems like an odd place to put it, usually it is right by the main cabin door so it is visible to boarding passengers in the jetway, similiar to US's current Heritage logo.

Ron,
It could be worse it could be SHINY , BARE METAL , get my drift ?
Another fun day at LGA is on hand. Peak wind got up to 49 kts and there appears to be tons of cancellations and diversions. A check of flight aware shows AA 398 ORD-LGA diverting into SYR after not being able to land at LGA. After taking back off from SYR it appears to have tried 2 or 3 more times to land at LGA before diverting to BOS....ouch :!:
Also an AA 767-300 is inbound from MIA as AA 2088 and back out to MIA as AA 1621
That's nuts. AA is now showing the ETA as 4:23, a solid 7 1/2 hours late.Quote:

Saw a rare site at the DL terminal today around 1230, two special schemes parked side by side. The pink 757 was on Gate 4 (nice touch for Valentines Day) with the Comair CRJ-900 in their 30th Anniversary scheme parked right in front on Gate 2, would have made a neat shot. Later they taxied out together and departed one behind the other, nice job Delta.
Later on 767-332 N124DE returned, was here also on Thursday, replacing the scheduled 757 on a turn from and to ATL, no doubt due to heavy loads with the long weekend and school break next week.
At about 1930 my favorite BBJ arrived, N888TY and as of 1300 Sunday was still parked at 5 Towers, such a "Beauty".

Also AA came with a 763 this morning as well

Trump returned from PBI around 1630, second week in a row he came home in daylight on a Monday afternoon instead of the usual Sunday night in darkness. Crew really greased the landing, so smooth looking and the nose was barely raised, what a beautiful sight.
