Looks like some great conditions out there at Bradley today John. And if I'm not mistaken, they were using 24?

Nice set! BDL looks to be in between Grand Rapids and Lansing traffic-wise.

BDL isn't bad traffic wise. It is mostly 737/CRJ type traffic. The mornings are fairly busy and there is a decent late morning arrival rush along with the same in the afternoon. Just not too many GOOD spotting locations. And they like to split the runways a lot which, with little enough traffic as it is, makes spotting frustrating at times.

That's a bummer. At least you guys in northeast have plenty of high traffic airports. JFK, EWR, LGA, PHL, BOS, etc. If I want high traffic I have to drive to ORD or DTW.

Nice set John, haven't seen that American Eagle with the yellow ribbon in a while, wasn't sure if it was around anymore. Great light as well.

Hi Steve,

All photos were using Rwy 33. The best photography location for Rwy 33 is behind the Friendly's Restaurant.

Lol, Lansing. 5 CRJ100, 3 ERJ135s, and a few Sun County 737s peppered in. Ugh!

Really? 33? Huh...interesting, but should have known that when seeing the SWA photos, since they seem to mostly prefer 33 no matter what the winds are doing. So, the parking lot behind Friendly's? I always thought that to be to close to the flight path, but the results you have gotten have me thinking I may try that location next time. I usually go on the other side of the Mobil station.
