The weather wasn't great, the traffic was meh, ATC wouldn't let us go anywhere, and my lens choice was not idea. But, still worth it.

R-22. Tiny little thing. Very fun though. ATC was being uncooperative tho, so not much in the way of opportunity. The MD-11 was taken from the Crowne Plaza hotel parking structure (where I was staying).

Fantastic especially the Eva Cargo!

That EVA Cargo is sweet!

That Korean is so clear!! Great shots!!!

You are right. I was mostly angry with my lens choice. Should have put on the teleconverter on my 300 (or used my D90 instead of my D700). The folks at Star Helicopters were aces.

Thanks! The Crowne Plaza is my go-to hotel now given you can have 'legit access' to the parking structure. Busy, but no one bothered me over 3 days.

Thanks! It was the last shot of the day, and the highlight!

Great work .. Thanks for sharing !

Everything I wanted to say has been said already so no comment.

I have made a mental note of the Crowne Plaza parking spot:cool:

All great shots, that is a unique perspective of the Il-76
