Delta Connection Academy celebrates with Pink Delta

Greetings from SCAMFORD Florida,
I'm sure some of the Delta Fans and Delta Special color trackers would find this intresting.
Delta Connection Academy Celebrated a new Building on Campus that holds many more classrooms Media rooms and Sim halls and al kinds of other snazzy things. It was quite impressive.
Delta flew in Pink Delta (N610DL) for the festivities. I went tyo SFB to see what Delta arrived then I heard about all of this Celabratory stuff. Several hundred people showed up. Everyone from the Mayor of Sanford to the airport Manager and gave their little speeches. There was also a mini airshows with the flightschools SECOND new Extra300 aircraft. Upon departing SFB The Pink Delta treated us do a flyby before heading back to ATL. Although I am not a Big fan of special colors especially Delta's It was nice to get a chance to board N610DL for a second time. First time was JFK-MCO in March when I was in NY for the A380.
I wasn't aware that the approach was doing to be as low as it was and I didn't even know where was going to be a flyby until someone told me as I was walking away. So I screwed up the shots.
Its too bad they didn't have this building ready when I was attending the school. The only thing I got of of ti was a lost spot to take pictures at.

Great stuff, Senga. That's a very unique experience. I hope you upload that fast!

I'm jealous! Good stuff!

Wow, great shots Senga!

I can feel Mel's jealousy all the way up here in Poughkeepsie. :shock:

These are great shots, well done.

I noted there a several Asians in uniform in the picture. Are they students being trained there? Do you by any chance know which country they might be coming from?

Great shots Senga!!! Those fly past shots are really neat!

It's the Pepto jet! Great catches, Senga! Would this be the first time a mainline Delta aircraft has visited SFB?

is one hell of a shot!

Thanks guys,
I'm glad it worked out as well as it had.
I wonder if this is the first time a Delta 757 has landed at SFB.

JZ1, Those Are Chinese students.. They are sent to train and fly for Air China and other carriers from there. Along with the large number of Chinese students there are many from India and some from south america.

Senga

Wow Senga, those shots are awesome!!!

Thanks Matt,
I dont think I wil be getting any better shot of N610DL until its retired :)
Senga

Im very dissapointed that I wasnt there but Senga,you took a heck of alot of great shots of Pink Delta. Great catches!!

Thanks Segio,
I am glad I was as close as I was. I had no plans to go to SFB that day. And I ended up spending several hours there.

Senga

Look at all the blue shirts!

You should have se it at the hight of the ceremony :)
