Well, I finally got to spot at LAS! After years of visiting Sin City, I never had even the inclination of officially spotting there. I once stayed at Mandalay Bay with a terrific view of the field and while I got a few shots, I never liked the heavy gold glazing on the windows. Anyway, these are from the official observation parking area next to the landing zone on RWY 25L. The Sun in the engines is hard to get tired off...
First, this guy was waaaaay above us while we were at around 34,000 feet.
Somewhere over, somewhere LOL. I figure maybe Colorado?
As we land, both Alaska (Southwest special livery) and this guy were at the gate...
and now the rest...
If you're wondering, this next image is heavily processed... LOL. I liked it and wanted to save the fact that it is now heavily backlit at this time from this location. The left side of the plane is almost totally dark to achieve proper exposure of the bg :-(
George said this guy would come in under darkness... nice surprise!
That's it for now... I took in excess of 500 images in 3 hours... Traffic at LAS is NON STOP!! I say more than JFK lol. But mostly Southwest who just pwned the rest of the carriers here. They have at least one southwest taking off or landing every 5 minutes or less sometimes. Amazing. So I won;t bore you with the colors... :-)
