    Nice LGA BBJ Visitor

    Tuesday evening got to watch a "Beautiful BBJ depart 31 at LGA using the call sign
    "Boeing 8 Mike Sierra". Today I did some searching and found the mystery Boeing's
    identity, N108MS, never even saw a photo of this one before,
    but even though it was dark when she departed,
    I could tell this was one sweet Boeing, have a look see !

    I read on a.net the owner has some connection with the Venetian in Las Vegas, sure
    hope she returns some day in daylight so I can get some shots of my own.

    Cheers LGA777

    hey ron, i saw this bird rolling on 31. that night sucked for me, meaning i remember every detail of it. the aiplane was a nice way to top off the evening.

    since it's callsign was "boeing eight sierra mike" then the airplane is definately privately owned and not operated by anyone but the owner's pilots. it's flown under part 91 rules, making the pilots some of the luckiest in the world. :drools:
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Cool. I'm glad they have a nice plane. The Venetian is the nicest place in Vegas IMHO, but I haven't been to the new Wynn Bajilliondollar place yet.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    Might as well wait on the Wynn visit. We flew some folks out there opening weekend, and the weekend after. Comments were: nice place, but still disorganized, not all amenities worked, big delays in the kitchen, etc...typical for a new place opening up. Give it a few months and then enjoy!
