KSAT & KAUS: South Texas Spotting

[NickPeterman]

Hey Guys,

Just a few from me this time. After living in Austin for about 2 years, I finally brought my camera down here. I decided to make the 2+ mile walk to the airport, since I don't have a car, and grabbed a few shots.

I was happy to see my first JetBlue with sharklets

This is the main reason I went out, and she didn't disappoint. First time I saw a Dreamliner and actually thought it looked awesome!

And now for San Antonio. Headed down to see my parents for Thanksgiving after they flew in from RIC. Stole about an hour at a park north of the airport on the day before Thanksgiving.

That Texas light does not disappoint, and you did a great hob of capitalizing on it. Impressive lot.

[RWB]

Excellent photos! XA-FEM looks great in that light, saw it depart last night.

[NickPeterman]

Thank you both! The light on runway 22 at KSAT was perfection, and I was quite happy with the location I found for KAUS

[Fly]

Those are great. Huge fan of that BA788 you got there!
