Hello All,
Finally getting around to posting my final spotting outing from 2013. Sadly the weather did not play ball throughout the 3 days I was at IAD, and I only spent the morning of Friday the 20th spotting, opting instead to do other things in DC rather than take clouded-out photos. So, I hope you can pardon the image quality, it was beyond dark that morning with the clouds and low sun, but I think I managed to salvage a few semi-decent images.

It was the morning of the A310 at IAD due to the Christmas rush

A highlight, my first UPS 757

And the day's real gem, a Luftwaffe Transall C-160. He sat at Cargo 6 with the engine running for over an hour before finally taxiing, I had begun to lose hope. But thankfully he taxied by, and away he went.

2013 was a great year of spotting, and here's to hoping that 2014 is just as good! Thanks for checking 'em out.
