Stopped off at JFK on my way home. I have put off getting the RJA Cargo n/c.
(One of the best looking liveries)

Senga...........excellent captures especially of the RJA Cargo. By the way, from what location did you capture your images from?
The shots must have been from the T5 garage.. Nice shot of RJC Seng...
Thanks............I haven't been at T5 as of yet. What range lens is good for shooting from T5?
Those look like they are from the airtrain but i've never been from that garage so It could be from there. Yea with the ash cloud grounding flights alot of a/c are sitting at JFK. Now would be a perfect time to drive around and get some things you dont have yet. Singapore is sitting at building 86 currently. As for the other airlines I dont know where they are parked but it looks like BA is still operating from what I saw 30 minutes ago (they had a 744 departing)
I didnt let the weather stop me (or the night) and I hammered it down. Started raining as she approached but it doesnt look like it affected my shots.
Starting off with a favorite of all of us. JT9-7Q

Nice shots. Why was it up here?
I really wish I could get her on arrival in 3 hours to complete the cycle, but I won't be able to. Mostly because I'll be sleeping.
Someone once mentioned that your night shots are better than your day ones. I'd agree...these are good. The flight deck shots are especially nice. And to get on one of those things is pretty unusual...
Fuel n go. Just here for fuel. prob rerouted cause of the ash cloud.Quote:

Unless the Evergreen lawsuit is successful those days are numbered sadly.Quote:

I was the villain but it's no exaggeration. I mean at night he gets them centered, level, less blurry, and even with the strobe!Quote:

It's also very cool to be able to say you were inside of it and have pics to prove it. I wish I could tell random chicks the same :lol:
I know. Though I doubt evergreen is going to win the suit. not enough proof on Evergreen's case.Quote:

Thanks,
Yes they were taken from the garage. 150-200mm would be needed.

Short of it is that Boeing gave Atlas the LCF contract several months back to appease them on 747-8F deliveries thereby terminating the current contract with Evergreen. Evergreen cried foul, saying that they had lived up to the contract in full and had no reason for it to be taken away from them. Boeing, in response, cited the "because we can" clause in the contract...and Evergreen sued saying that doling out favors to an unhappy customer wasn't a sufficient basis to cancel it. At least that's how I understand it.Quote:

It is pretty amazing how huge that interior is

The Beluga guppy might be uglier but the Dreamlifter still looks like it swallowed a giant pig. It'd say it's almost a draw :)
Yea I agree the LCF does look bloated but Boeing did a good job with it. Just wonder how long they will be flying for...
The Dreamlifter still has the fact that it's a 747 going for it.Quote:

In my book the 747 is still the largest plane ever made.Quote:
