    FANTASTIC PHL coverage, great catch on the DHL 'banana'! You also seriously lucked out on the US legacy paints, I spent months chasing those

    Looks like you just missed them:
    UAL1208 739
    and
    ASA8 739

    Random question but are you sure ASA31 took-off on 35 because the tower cleared them to depart on 27L and that's what the radar shows...

    Nice catch of the United Star Alliance.

    Thanks! It took me years but I've finally caught all the US specials with that American West plane; thanks to the East/West fleet integration.
    Now I just want better shots of the other AW planes, Arizona, Nevada flags and the other HP retro.

    The only US Airways special I haven't gotten on video is the Cardinals jet. Have only gotten Arizona and Nevada once and wouldn't mind getting more video of both (as well as PSA - haven't gotten that one in a while).

    I hope to be out on July 12 and 13 and hopefully they all get routed through PHL at some point!

    Gee nice going Kiffy, I was trying to make some regret not coming! You had to ruin it for me LOL! And thanks for the compliment! I was in shock to see a Star Alliance livery at a now-Oneworld airport. Speaking of Oneworld, I saw Oneworld Qatar in today's set!

    Hope everyone enjoys me and my dad/driver going out to the airport just to get Oneworld!

    An opportunity arose that let me get the Dreamliner on day four of scheduled service... granted the video wasn't exactly as I hoped but I will make up for it next time around!

    Oh, that's still really good Paul! It doesn't have to be long to be good!

    I just spotted "Maryland One" en-route to Philly, arrived as flight 3004.

    N828AW, the 1st America West retrojet was just through Philly and will pass through again this evening as AWE710.

    I'm not at PHL yet but I'mm probably head over to get the HP retro and BA69.
    It's a beautiful day for spotting!
