[Paul F]

Hi Y'all ... I had a great time in good company over at JFK 8/25 so thanks once again to Tom for accomodating my visit and good to meet you all!.

I'll get around to sorting out some of my favourite aviation pics. from my visit later this week with a bit of a trip report and I'll post on here when I'm done but, for now, I thought you might enjoy one or two of the portraits I took as a photo caption competition ... no prizes, just some laughs at nobody's expense ... please feel free to contribute!

"Mmm, these Nikon guys are damn clever ... a 777 wingspan is about 200 foot and they fit it on a card that measures how much?"

Paul it was great to meet you and I'm glad you had good time! Nick you can make fun of my hat but I never get sunburn when I wear it.

Paul it was great to meet you and I'm glad you had good time! Nick you can make fun of my hat but I never get sunburn when I wear it. I sympathize ... my daughter kept having a laugh at me wearing my hat "like Bart Simpson" but my neck never got burnt either. Tom et al .. if you guys want any of the photos here then let me know and I'll e-mail them across.
