I would love to shoot with you guys but the only shooting I will be doing this Saturday will be at Gillespie field in El Cajon, California. Have a good time guys

[NLovis]

Hmm. So i'm going to say meet at bayswater? what time?

[Delta777LR]

im thinking of heading out as early as possible

[NLovis]

im thinking of heading out as early as possible
Ok so lets figure 7:30 ish?

[threeholerglory]

relax NLovis. We will get there when the time is right. I'm leaving my house in NJ at around 0800 tentatively. I plan to be there by 9 if all goes well. I'm going to get Sergio at Firestone and we'll figure out where to go after that.

[NLovis]

relax i am relaxed xD msot likely they will be using the 22's for arrivals and departures.

[NLovis]

I might not be showing up as it is 5:05AM and i'm still awake. So i'm a hit or miss.

Guess you weren't as relaxed as you thought? :wink:

[NLovis]

lol :lol: Nah I lost track of time. Next week i'll have to keep better track of time. Though now i'll be spotting from one of my spots inside the ramp at B87 since my week starts now. Will be hard till I get my new badge :?

Ended up spending the day with Sergio and also met up with Barry and Joe for a bit...the conditions were about as bad as they can get but we made do and had a great day anyway.

Finally China Eastern is switching to daytime flights!

Great shot with the BA jet blasts!

I passed by Belt Parkway yesterday around 3-4pm and the coastal fog just kept rolling in, I could hardly see couple hundred feet off the waters.

Heres mine!!

that shot of the AA 767 with winglets busting out of the cloud is pretty damn cool....heck, they're all awesome! I'm artistically working on my One World shot...

[heeshung]

Wow, looks you guys both nailed the China Eastern A346. Great job; I hope to get her soon.

[moose135]

Nice work - Mike, that BA 744 shot is a stunner!

[threeholerglory]

Thanks Moose! It's a shame I screwed myself though....I shot on another jpeg profile that had sharpening in it and I only shot it at 300mm....doesn't leave much room for additional editing and needed a fairly large crop but I'm happy with how it worked out.

[Matt Molnar]

Great stuff, guys.

[NLovis]

Philip. nice

[PhilDernerJr]

Crazy seeing China Eastern! Good shooting, guys.

Mike, I sometimes don't like when people use them, but I love your borders on your shots.

[threeholerglory]

Thanks Phil! I toiled around with it for a while and then just realized that simple is best to just give it "the look".....enough to be noticed but not enough to distract...at least thats how I feel about it.

I passed through JFK on 7 March and again on 18th March on my way from Dublin to DC for St Patricks Day celebrations among other things. I was not really geared up for spotting so I wonder can any of you guys help me with the registrations of the Korean at about noon on 7th and then the Air France A380, THY 777, Qutar, Royal Jordanian and the 3 Swiss in the late afternoon of 18th.

Thanks
