What started as a frustrating afternoon of runway roulette, actually settled down for a fun afternoon. Kaz, Steve, Akie, Manny, Jose & Cary, great seeing you all again. Sorry I didn't get to meet the JP guys. Anyhow, being no one had started a thread yet, here are a few of mine from the 4 hours I was out. Can't wait for the LAX trip in October!

This was the "first attempt" for UAE201. He floated it a good distance down the runway (4R) and initiated a missed approach.
Although his mains did touch, so technically it was a touch & go.

Nice catch and in great light on the China Airlines. Looking forward to UN Week and the shutter fest in LA.

Very nice John. I saw the Dynasty bird from Mitsubishi in Wantagh and wondered if it was a special.
