KCLT - Charlotte/Douglas Airport, On-Going Thread

We had another An-124 drop in late last night. They loaded it up this afternoon then buttoned it up for the night.

I love the smell of burned vodka in the morning LOL

Indeed, Mark! They ended up leaving at 3am, so I missed that.

We have been getting the DL A220/CS100 in and out multiple times in the past couple of weeks. When I went down to get the Antonov, one had just departed. It was back again today, and while I missed the arrival, I was able to get the departure from the overlook at 18C.

Nice catch Jn!! One place they have not been yet is down here - don't know if we will get to see one for a while...

We had our first visit by an Airbus A350 to CLT today. LH is shifting them to the daily Munich flight starting this coming Sunday, but they flew one in today for testing.

Ohhhh..you lucky man you!!! Great shots John!!!

Following Tuesday's sneak peak, today marked the start of regularly-scheduled, daily A359 service by Lufthansa between CLT and Munich. They landed 36R and rolled to the end, so we were treated to some nice shots with the skyline in the background. ARFF was out again to give them a water salute.

We had a couple of interesting visitors in to CLT today! It was raining when I got down there after work, and they weren't parked in the best of spots, but you take what you can get!
