    Nice set of birds we don't typically see. Great work. Also good to know that Congo 707 is still flying. Last I heard she was sitting in storage at MIA.

    I shot that blasted plane at MIA. I took a flight down to MIA to get shots if it. We were under the impression it was going to be a one way flight and never fly again after going back to the DRC to I went there to shoot it.

    And then of course after all that work to get it it shows up at JFK. THEN at the African summit. Sheesh I wish some of the - "ahh sorry buddy!" Ya just missed that by one YEAR!" "Oh TOO BAD, they JUST retired it 2 years back" kind of planes would show up again like that Congo does. I was pleading to get it before they painted it over from the Doo Doo Brown livery to this blue one. It was planned to JFK and of course they had a mechanical problems so it never showed and they painted it over after that. Can't win for losing.

    if I see it again I'm going to scream.
