Love the clamshells and the C-130 background!

[lijk604]

Screw the DC9, let's see more of those C-130's!

[hiss srq]

Two things make me happy. Clam and clamshell. Need more clamshell.

[seahawks7757]

thanks guys. Pissed I missed two C-130's take off because I got distracted by a dam A330 :(

For this you should be banned. :lol: j/k

[Derf]

no John, He should really be banned for that! :wink:

Is the DC-9 on the runway or taxi way? It looks too narrow to be a runway, but normally you don't deploy the clam shell unless you are slowing down on the runway. Curious...

Thrust reversor problems?

It's a runway. You can see the centerline behind the aircraft and at the bottom right edge of the photo you can see the red taxi sign that designates the runway.

[seahawks7757]

Correct it is the runway! And I should be banned for that. I felt stupid after words. But when I was on that side they were just sitting there so I wasn't expecting any movement out of them.

Naturally. You got all the shots we all desperatly want to get ourselves :borat:

[seahawks7757]

Sorry to chuckle but your comment makes me lol. You make it sound like DC-9's aren't important any more :P I know what you mean but getting a good laugh :borat:

There important but these test planes wont be in Boeing colors next year so thats higher up on the list. The DC-9 all I need left is it landing on 13L and I got what I can get.

[seahawks7757]

Finally heres a little update. Taken a few days off from BFI has allowed me to start catching up a little. First few suck because they were shot in ISO800 by mistake. The later ones are better as they were shot in ISO100. The better quality starts with the A319!-

Delta DC-9. At first sight I thought this was a MD-80. White paint makes it look HUGE!!!-
