    Been a while since I've posted anything from CLT. Sunday was warm and sunny, and there was a big crowd out at the overlook.









    How about a little prop blur?



    The hourly deck offers some interesting views.









    Via Air has started flying a couple of E145s in addition to their E120s.

    Lovely! Especially like that VIA ERJ. That parking garage certainly offers a nice vantage!

    Ho Hum...another An-124... ;-)

    This guy came in earlier this week, and is supposed to be here through the 18th, just someplace to park between jobs.





    It still has the remnants of the "20 Years" anniversary sticker on the tail.



    A bit of a traffic jam leaving the terminal.

    Stopped out to CLT after work this evening. The Antonov should be in town until early next week.

    Nice sets John and nice work on the night shots! Keep'em coming. I'll be passing through CLT on 4/17 on my way to San Antonio, hope to get a little terminal spotting in between my flight.

    Had an A-10 from the Maryland ANG spend the weekend, and I caught him departing Sunday afternoon.

    The new Piedmont retro Dash-8 was in and out of CLT a few times today. Of course, as they taxied it, a big cloud came over, and departing 18L I ended up with heat haze, but at least I've caught it. It was painted to honor their retiring president Steve Farrow, and may not be around long.







    Storm clouds around Charlotte made for some interesting backgrounds.









    They were departing 36R and for a while they had a decent tail wind, which resulted in some neat skyline shots.

    After getting home from my air show adventure last Monday, I finally had a chance to get out to CLT several times this weekend.

    There was some nasty weather in the area, and I was hoping we were going to get some interesting diversions into CLT, instead, we got some ugly thunderstorms that closed the ramp for close to an hour, creating a huge back up. At one point, tower said there were over 40 inbound aircraft sitting on various taxiways trying to get to the ramp, while nothing at the terminal could leave since the rampers were all inside avoiding the lightning.

    Before the weather got bad:



    LIAT - Leeward Islands Air Transport Services Dash-8 I've seen this come in on FlightAware a few times, but was able to catch it tonight - they just beat the thunderstorms in.



    A ramp full of airplanes with no particular place to go.

    Thanks, Mark!

    We had the AA Reno Air retro come into CLT this evening. Just dumb luck that I caught it - I had been at the overlook, and when things got quiet (real quiet!) I took a ride up to the hourly deck. I saw this coming in on Rwy 23, and I couldn't figure out what it was as it approached. I thought I heard an American call sign check in, but it sure didn't look right. As it got closer and I saw the AA titles, I realized what I had caught!





    We also had an Air Canada Express (Sky Regional Airlines) E-175 come in. They were picking up passengers off a CRJ that broke.
