    LAS - Nov 6-8 (11 photos)

    Spent most of the this trip sightseeing with my brother, but I managed to shoot an hour Friday & Saturday by myself and then most of Sunday shooting with Dave Budd (the King of LAS). Unfortunately our day was cut short by a nasty overcast layer that blew in around 2pm. I did have a few nice catches while there, so instead of boring you with the 400+ Southwest arrivals, I'll just share the specials and a few we don't normally see in the NY area.

    Hawaiin B767-300


    Horizon Dash 8-400


    US Airways America West Heritage


    US Airways Arizona


    US Airways Nevada


    US Airways Star Alliance B757W


    Westjet


    Sunwing


    Southwest Shamu


    Mexicana- new colors


    Alaska



    I'll post a few bizjets in another thread when I have them finished. Also keep an eye out in the Photography forum in the next few days for other shots from my trip...Red Rock Canyon, Hoover Dam, night shots of the strip & HDR's.

    Damn Jason Whitebird! He is back!

    Glad you got some sun John, that light is just great this time of year. Glad you got the Sunwing as well. Nice shots.

    Great catches on the US Star 75W ETOPS and the Sunwing. I didnt even think Sunwing was still alive.

    Well I didn't see Whitebird there, just Dave and this new guy Franz. Had nice light when I was there Fri & Sat late afternoon, so I'll take those shots and run with them.

    Well I didn't see Whitebird there,
    He was the clouds! It's a running joke, just ask Art he will tell you.

    just Dave and this new guy Franz
    Glad to hear Dave remembered commercial aviation still exists. Glad you guys got to shoot.
