KFLL - March 14 & 15

With two great spotting areas, this airport, by far, had the best variety of action that I visited.
Honestly, I spent more time here than in Miami, which surprised me. It was great meeting Mark Lawrence there.
Thanks for coming out Mark, it was great to meet you finally.

Here are the one's from FLL I liked the best:

Great stuff, John! Looks like I need to plan a trip down there!

A Shorts Skyvan??? I can't even remember the last time I saw one of those. Great weather and shots John

Very nice stuff John, I guess Mr. Huizinga had to downgrade from his BBJ.

This must be his "other" airplane - he's had it for a while, I shot it at FRG a few years ago.

He's got a second GIV which was already in the hangar when this came in. No sign of the BBJ.
Actually, you can se the tail of it in the UA 737-900 photo. That was taken before N61WH came in.

Nice shots John!

The BBJ has been sold - he currently has two G-IV's (N37WH and N61WH) as well as the helicopter - there was a Citation Sovereign floating about too with his Dolphins helmet on the tail - but - I think that has departed the fold too....

[Edit] - the BBJ used to be N737WH - but according to the FAA registry - it is no longer active - I'm not sure what it has been re-registered as...

I never thought there were Shorts Skyvans still in the air!
