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

    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.

    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.

    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!

    The Zero-G 727 has been in Charlotte the past couple of days.









    This Atlas Air 744 brought the Jacksonville Jaguars in to play the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

    Seems like forever since I've posted anything!

    We had an interesting catch at CLT this afternoon, a Gulfstream G-IV which looks to be the Washington Redskins team plane. In addition to the logo, it's registered to DSWA LLC at Redskin Park Drive in Ashburn, VA. The team owner is Dan Snyder, and the team headquarters and practice facility is at that location.

    Ron Rivera, who was head coach of the Carolina Panthers before being fired during the season, was hired by the Redskins in the off-season. We suspect he was using it for a trip home, as he still has a home in Charlotte.





    Back in December, the Seattle Seahawks came to Charlotte to play the Panthers. They use Hawaiian for team travel, and we were able to catch it while it was in town.



    That same day we caught the AA Astrojet arriving.



    Caught a pair of Honeywell Gulfstreams one day in December as well. N922H is a G-VI, N599H is a G-V.





    Monday it was 75 degrees and sunny, so I stopped by CLT after work. Got there about 10 minutes before the LH A350 was due in - light was perfect...and they landed 18L while I was at the Overlook.
