Wow great collection of aircraft Mark! Lucky catch on the AA too!
Lucky catch on that AA bird.... Question, the Arrow Air DC-10, is that a 10 or 30 because I never knew that they had a series 10 in their fleet....
You got the Mythbusters plane!!!! (N700CK)
Very nice pictures.
This Arrow Air is DC-10-10. Its very hard to distinguish -10 from -30. The easiest one is DC-10-40 because they have humps on engine number two.

I never knew Arrow Air had any 10s. thanks for that Tipek
easiest way to tell a 10 from a 30 is the extra center line landing gear on the 30s
Great shots Mark, lots of good stuff you got there.
Nice stuff! I actually like the El Al 762 the best!
Forgot to add in the above...it was a great day spent with 3 new friends - Santiago Escobar from Columbia (moving to Dallas), Orlando Suarez from Venezuela and Roberto Collazzo from Miami (he's the one that knows Senga and a lot of others)...told them about the boards - hopefully get some new people on - if you guys do make it....it was great spotting with you yesterday!
Exactly, that is the dead giveaway. No DC-10-10's have the center gear, all DC-10-30 (and 40) series have it.Quote:

Awsome shots Mark!
Man now I'm kicking myself for not making it out. Something in the back of my head was telling me to go. :(
The AA with the pink sash is the new breast cancer awareness bird. A freind told me they should also be painting a T7 with it, and the 757 will be MIA based.
