A few Minor catches this week worth noting but not much more than that.
The most interesting was was the Flyglobespan 767-300 ex Thomson that has been redone in GSM colors. One side is in full GSM title and the other is empty acccept the tail.
I saw it at the gate as we were landing back at SFB today and I had to take a double take to make sure my eyes were not playing tricks on me.

Normal GSM colors

Icelandair 757-200 without the blue bottom. Personally I like it better without the thick blue bottom.

MPH old colors. ACARSD came through on this one!
Glad to get a much better shot that my old January 2001 shot frmo MCO. Last MPH 737 in old colors and same one I shot in 2001.

Thanks and Thanks,
I have only been to ORL one time. The plane I tried to get had lots of heat haze. Luckily I already had a shot so it wasn't a total loss.

Yes I was a shock to me,
We had just gotten back the ground after our gear failed to extend and so we had to use the manual gear extention complete with a flybye past the tower so they could see if it was down with binoculars. That was one shock (Not really).
When I saw this blue GSM 737 I was even more taken off guard than the gear emergency we had just 15 mins before!
