As some of you know, Mel and I spent several days in Florida.
On approach into FLL, I got these two airports from overhead, and I have NO IDEA which ones they are. Can anyone help me out?

Just before touchdown, I saw these P-3's whch I understand are hurricane chasers.

At some point during my trip, I got these other planes at FLL, all seemingly Miami Dolphins' fleet.

On the 11th, Mark Lawrence grabbed us up and took us to PBI, which was a fun day of spotting. We got all kinds of stuff, but I was most excited about some of the bizjet action, which I've been wanting to get more of.

We also saw this 727 that was damaged during Hurricane Wilma.

There was a lot of helicopter traffic, too. The most interesting was this West Palm Beach chopper that they were carting around.

That was a great day. Thanks Mark!!
It was a fun trip for both relaxation and aviation. I'm eager to get back to Florida and explore more soon.
This was one of my last shots of the trip, taken at FLL a few hours before we boarded.
