Great shots Paul!!

Did you happen to see what Bruce Springsteen flew in on?

great shots! I've spotted PHL a few times from Enterprise Blvd (or is it Island?)...anyway, I haven't found the sweetspot for getting action shots...where's the best place to be (I'm familiar with the road so you can be as specific as you need to be) for arrivals and departures in either direction? Thanks!

Not really. Nothing special whatever it may have been.

There are numerous spots on Hog Island Rd. near the checkered tanks for arrivals on 27R (mostly used) and 27L departures can be had in a small lot near the fire training facility just past UPS. It's a very easy airport for photos. I have a spotter/photog map on my site. Here's a link:

Thanks so much for the info, Paul. I apologize, I did not realize that you had posted twice in two days! Great shots from both, hopefully I can make it down there sometime soon!
