IAD 10/30 - Some Rare Visitors

A rewarding afternoon spent at the airport on Thursday! Very happy to finally click the shutter on the Gambia IL-62 after missing her the two past years at SWF.

Happy fall light!

That's some nice paint on that British 757, great catches Gordon

I saw that Gambian bird a couple weeks ago at Dulles. Shame the light wasn't better for the visit.

You also got a snap of the new Omni 767-3 for government ops at Dulles too. Neat!

Great shots !!! I have France plane from UN Week of 2013.
