KMIA 1/18/13 - Ramp Tour (IMAGE HEAVY)

[MarkLawrence]

The annual ramp tour at MIA was held 1/18 - the weather was less than co-operative - but - at least there were some good sights to see - and - of course catch up with old friends and meet new ones!

This Fedex 722 was donated to the Baker Aviation School - but - will never make it over there

Mark, 6 photos is image heavy? Or is my browser not loading them all up?
Nice panning on the ArkeFly, and why wont the 727 make it to the school?

[MarkLawrence]

It's not the quantity John - when I uploaded them they were pretty big - that's all. The 727 - it's on the north west side of the field - the school is down on the east side at the end of 9R/9L - to tow it over to the other side of the field and then have a crane lift it over Le Jeune Rd is way too much for the shape it is in - and - since AA donated the Md-80 there - there is no space anymore.

Very fantastic, I was on bus 2...so we didn't catch the Lufty A380 landing, but we did catch her taking off.
