Needed some break from daily routine, so decided to head up north to the boarder :)
Heres some of the stuff from 4 days. We had nothing but nice sunny Canadian skies and it was also Toronto Airshow Weekend :o

This came there from MO ANG for the support.

It gave me goosebumps to see our bird from Tri-State area. (on the side note, met a Canadian writer in the crowd who commented, "You folks did elect lousy president, but sure know how to make fantastic flying machines!"

Soon after the departure, the FALCON PATROL SUV was all over the Thrushold area with gun shots and the speaker noises!

Its been a while in the forum, however now that I have moved out of 56K relm, I am more likely to participate.
As you all know by now, Oct 2/3 , A380 is coming to KBDL, let me know if anyone needs a ride since I live 20 miles from the field and plan to be there for atleast 1 day.

Later,
Raj

Raj, really great stuff!

I'm currently in Montreal and planning on doing some spotting at YUL tomorrow afternoon, unfortunately they don't seem to get the Air Canada 777s unless they are on a delivery flight. :(

I look forward to seeing you again at BDL for the A380, I might PM you if you know about any spotting locations up there.

Raj, that AC triple-seven approach shot just blows me away. Awesome angles on all of the shots and yes, please do share more of them! :D

Thanks for the nice comments. Now that summer heat/haze is gone, I hope to make few trips to Kennedy in coming months.
