The 2012 Philadelphia Cargo Rush, Image Heavy-Style

[megatop412]

Have ye been good little boils and ghouls? Feeling the Yuletide glow? Well those lists has been checked twice and you can tell your kids the stuff is on its way. With no help from these cargo carriers that like to fly around in the middle of the night like they're friggin' Batman or something, we caught them in all their sometimes very low-light glory.

For ambience, might I suggest that you play Van McCoy's 'The Hustle'(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0xVLGssnwU) as I find it fitting to the visuals. If you are too young to know what this is, please do not tell me.



















Do The Hustle!


















Personally, I have asked Santa for a Winnebago, so I can shoot over that stupid fence! Too bad Contract Air Cargo's 727 and ABX's 767 come in and leave under cover of darkness. And unlike JFK, there is no place to go set up a tripod for night ramp shots unless you want to meet the fine officers of the PPD(I looked, that FedEx 727 was enough of a suicide shot as it is).

Well hope you enjoyed looking as much as I enjoyed freezing my ass off!

William most good things come at a price job well done. I did not know Philly gets all this cargo influx I might have to join you next year.

Great stuff, William !

Excellent!

Most of MSP's cargo arrives at o'dark 30

I did manage to get a FedEx 752 today, but the winds conspired against me for Evergreen and more FedEx. I still have two days however!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks folks. Never seen a FedEx 757 or any of those Cessna feeders @ PHL. Only thing I'm punching myself about missing was the USA Jet DC-9-15 that came on Monday in miserable conditions.

Enjoy your holidays everyone! I look forward to seeing some of you again for the LOT 787 arrival
