Great Shots Luke! Regarding the other matter, I used to assume that only the very best pilots in any given country would be entrusted to fly around the respective Head-of-State. But 10+ years of...

Great Shots Luke! Regarding the other matter, I used to assume that only the very best pilots in any given country would be entrusted to fly around the respective Head-of-State. But 10+ years of...
It's got titles and colors... Well done and worth getting I'd say. It suffers only in the context of its predecessor, as many of the VIP aircraft do. But anyway, your proactive approach pays off...
As I understand it, the manufacturer put some pressure on the few owners of these aircraft to sell them back, as the cost of supporting the small fleet was prohibitive. There was one example locally...
The Navy basically ordered off-the-shelf technology in terms of the airship itself, to get its feet wet again so to speak in Lighter than Air. The Airship has had several assignments thus far a...
Well, there are certainly enough shoppers at Cosco that help to possibly end your spotting day early if you are shooting every jetblue arrival. The more you shoot the greater the odds of being...
Terribly saddened to read about Matt's untimely passing. On all the occasions we'd meet up in the field and chat briefly, Matt was consistently generous with his time and knowledge, not to mention...
It's long been my opinion the Port Authority has just been being clever all these post 911 years. NJ Transit and MTA (and many others) have found out the hard way they have very little in the way...
YES!!! Multiple passes around 2am about a week or so ago. This was over Staten Island and I could not get any look at it at all, but couldn't believe my ears!
Wow! Had my doubts this one in particular would ever show up in the US. And here it is at LAX.
IL-62 has been to LAX in recent years though (the regular Russian Govt transport at the time).

Thanks for posting this. I'd heard of this event before but never made it out to one. I suppose it's not that well publicized. Definitely going to try to make it next year.

No. Sorry, but its not really the same at all.
There's apparently going to be two of them wearing this livery. We'll see...
HA! Yes, I can imagine that as well. :) It's funny, but I just deleted an email invitation to see Men In Black lll at an exclusive preview at the Intrepid! It's like Frank Sinatra sang......
I think those are very good spots, with only one problem. I believe you'd be against the sun to some extent, so you'd be faced with a backlit shot. But this won't be much different than Bayswater or...
One could stand along the New Jersey side of the Hudson, more or less across from the Intrepid and Cruise Ships. It is quite elevated over there - basically atop a cliff. There's been a photo...
It's the strangest thing, because not long before this incident a B52 (yes a B52) came down low over the harbor and the statue executing a large turn (albeit not in front of the office buildings in...
One more postponement and we'll just have to send this thing off to Texas!!
I agree Manny. I don't care for the prices really, but its not out of "greed" they are charging I don't think. (and I am sure somewhere down the line there will be a "POP" pay one price discount...
Yeah, but "other museums" were never featured in a Cher video....
Hey Speedbird... can you imagine if the Shuttle slips off the barge and into the Bay? That would top the concorde losing its nose wouldn't it? I can imagine the headlines... could probably only...
Did you get a shot??
Of all time:
DH COMET 4

Is it okay to call you "Rain Man"? No.. just kidding... you were right. No one should ever discount a bad weather forecasts for Large Outdoor Events in NYC - they seem to happen more often than...
OK, well, by popular demand, to repeat what has already been asked... WHAT DAY IS IT ARRIVING??? :smile:
Yes, that was very unfortunate. The museum really should've been allowed to gobble up another pier; there just isn't enough space at their disposal to meet their ambitions.
