Been inside that SP, has a bedroom and so many other goodies! Def a radical beast. Nice catches Senga.

Nice stuff, Senga. Unfortunately I see none of those were taken at SWF, seems like things are very slow over there. :(

Interesting to see A6-AIN operating for Iraq now.

Thats true Gordon, SWF seems to be very quiet lately. I think the last plane I shot there was that Ryan Air 767-300
Thanks Nick,
I also Shot VP-BLK when it flew for the UAE Government A6-SMR

I'm going to see if I can try and answer this, hope you don't mind Senga or John:

The 747SP, Gambia 727, Etihad A330, and the Israeli C-130 were taken at IAD.
The Indian A319 at HPN.
The Iraqi BBJ and Egpytian A340-200 at ADW.
Tanzanian Gulf?

I could see if your right about the SP but I will let Senga tell us.

That's pretty impressive Gordon,

Here are a few changes.
IAD: Gambia 727, Sands 747SP
HPN: Indian A319
ADW: Egypt A340 and Iraqi BBJ
WRI: (Mcguire AFB): Israeli C-130
PHL: Tanzania G5
JFK: ETD A330

Nick the reg of 747SP that used to fly for TWA is N58201 (cn 21961/415)

Nick,
Opps I didn't see that link somehow.
I wish they still had the thick cheatline on SMR when I shot it. Thanks for posting.

That Sands 747SP could be the one we saw at MCO on Aug. 14. When one of the police/security officers came to the fence to tell us we couldn't take pictures there, I asked him where the plane was going and he told us Washington :mrgreen:

Mayi757
That was it. it flew MCO to IAD. Yes, MCO is pretty rough when it comes to photograpy. Point shoot and go.
