IAD and Shuttle Discovery

[megatop412]

Been up since 3:30 for this thing. This was a monumental day in my life as a spotter, shared with friends Nick, Manny, and Cary. I thought the 787 at Newark was a big deal, this turned out to be huge even though the light went to sh*t. I hope NY gets the same treatment and the weather holds, because this was quite simply, total epicness. I won't even bother to post any of the other shots, even the Boeing BBJ we got right before leaving.

Where were you and Manny? I saw Cary on the parking garage - I was wearing a striped polo. Nice shots, I love the one of 28...that whole road was insane!

I was up there with them, we were only on the garage for a few minutes though- we were just about to leave when we saw the BBJ

That BBJ was a nice treat. Great shots William! It was great hanging with you again.


We need to record that Spotter's CD: "F-Stops, Flyby's, and Feces"
