    Labor Day Weekend @ YYZ

    Needed some break from daily routine, so decided to head up north to the boarder :)
    Heres some of the stuff from 4 days. We had nothing but nice sunny Canadian skies and it was also Toronto Airshow Weekend :o

    This came there from MO ANG for the support.


    It gave me goosebumps to see our bird from Tri-State area. (on the side note, met a Canadian writer in the crowd who commented, "You folks did elect lousy president, but sure know how to make fantastic flying machines!"


    Soon after the departure, the FALCON PATROL SUV was all over the Thrushold area with gun shots and the speaker noises!


    One of the two Star Alliance 340 gingerly taxing in great light to 06L.


    My favourite angle for the stubby Airbus.


    Triple Time:Inbound from EGLL, this one soared over my head at 80 feet!


    AC015 Non-Stop to HKG is about to line up Rwy 23. This is 1 of 2 LRs in the fleet at present.


    Another LR caught in action. Heading to Rwy 23 for a non-stop to Karachi.


    Love this angle on a T7.


    Lastly, when about to pack the camera, a Cardinal flies by :D


    Its been a while in the forum, however now that I have moved out of 56K relm, I am more likely to participate.
    As you all know by now, Oct 2/3 , A380 is coming to KBDL, let me know if anyone needs a ride since I live 20 miles from the field and plan to be there for atleast 1 day.

    Later,
    Raj

    I love the birds in the AC shot! Nice work
    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Raj, really great stuff!

    I'm currently in Montreal and planning on doing some spotting at YUL tomorrow afternoon, unfortunately they don't seem to get the Air Canada 777s unless they are on a delivery flight. :(

    I look forward to seeing you again at BDL for the A380, I might PM you if you know about any spotting locations up there.

    Thanks for the nice comments. Now that summer heat/haze is gone, I hope to make few trips to Kennedy in coming months.
    Meanwhile heres some more....

    AZ was represented by two 67s on each day.


    I saw this last summer there too.


    Think this one is relatively new and temporary color scheme.


    Company colors


    This one came in as DHL Flight


    And now some homies.... :)
    Anniversary Colors


    As the local spotters called it, " Sixteen " inbound on Rwy 05 at prescise 18:10 arrival from VHHH...


    Lastly, the big sister gliding over the DIXIE ROAD with T3 in the back (notice the wing reflection).
