    MIA Spotting 01/28 (Image Heavy!)

    In my first spotting adventure of 2015 I spent the day down in MIA, a trip I had long been hoping to make. I flew into FLL and rented a car and made the short drive down to the MIA airport where the weather was perfect (albeit a little brisk for Miami). The airport was operating on runway 27/30 which meant that the "holes" and the El Dorado spot where out of commission. However, I was able to find a pretty decent vantage point to capture the many movements of the day! If you'd like to catch South American metal or AA metal before the livery transition is complete than I would highly recommend a trip down to Little Cuba. Enjoy. :)

    Great set and an unusual spotting location. Where are you located, I'm guessing in a hotel room?

    Instead of starting a new thread with only a few days difference, I'm just going to continue here and add pics only not covered above. Miami is a must visit airport at least once a year. I am smacking my self for not being there all this years.










    End of day 1
