Good stuff Rich! Where was your location for the AF Triple 7 shots? B Garage? How is access at Pease?

[AA757]

The first shot with the planes underneath the 777 is from the garage... the second is from Black Falcon Pier (4R arrrival)..

Pease shots were taken from a public golf course.... runway 34 arrivals and the light is only good in the mid to late afternoon......If they would be departing runway 16 you might be able to do something in the am

Very nice, Rich! Once, I spent a week at Pease dragging some F-4s to Europe. Cool place.

Thanks for the comments Moose! I think its a neat place too and I plan on spending some more afternoons there as the light goes till 8pm. I have to search out a place for runway 16 arrivals.....
