Nice catches, Doug ! Gotta love all that cargo action

Love the TAB DC10

Nice catch on TAB DC-10! I miss seeing many DC-10s in service.

Nice set.........definitely have to make out to MIA one of these days.

Thanks,guys. I have more to post once I edit them. I deffinately want to go back and spend more than one day at MIA,even if it means putting up with Miami drivers.

Driving in Miami for the first time was completely terrifying for me. Lines on the road? Who needs them! Rules? Who cares! Although, it's not really any worse than Manny, when he races to get a plane at JFK :tongue:

Speaking of driving in Miami, when I went down I was curious if my rental car (a 2012 Chevy Aveo) had a governor. I tested it on I-75. It did not.

Nice shots of the cargo action

Miami drivers....hmmm...well..I live in Ft Lauderdale - and I hate Miami drivers!!

Great catches Doug - the TAB DC-10 is a great catch!!

I'm here until the end of August. Come on down and have a blast! MIA, FLL, OPF, three of the greatest spotting airports I've been to.

Funny that you realized it in just one day! I've been here since March and I get more flabbergasted at just how bad it really is every day!

In the last 5 months I've thought, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!!??!?!?" more times than I can count. It's unbelievable. And driving my own, brand new car makes it even scarier!

Haha, that's where I do my high-speed driving, too! My car gets 3.8 MPG at 140MPH. And 2.6 at its top speed.

It's all of Florida, for one main reason: Miami is atrocious, but as you go north you have all of the incredibly old people who probably shouldn't have licenses anymore. You think Miami is bad and FLL is fine because you're jaded having lived there a while.

Damnit. Now that you said that, I went and checked, and sure enough, I had messages from you. So sorry I didn't reply.

This website really, really, really needs a better way of notifying us of private messages, quoted posts, etc. A way to "mention" people and have it pop-up when they log-in would be spectacular. Perhaps I'm just jaded by one of the other forums I'm on where I spend most of my time!
