Just outside the Colorado Springs area in late February.



Mt. Rainier after departing from Seattle on a very warm day in September.

This was taken on a phone but I do like waking up at the most random times on flights just to look out the window and see stuff like this:

This was on a TPAC coming back from ICN. I believe I was somewhere over Alaska.

A rainy night on the tarmac at SJC


My daughter and her EMB120 (don't worry, she's a passenger, not a pilot). Taken at SJC at the end of a DCA-ORD-LAX-SBC-SJC day, last two segments on this plane. EMB120s give you a bit of that "High and the Mighty" feeling when you hit a bit of weather.

I'm so important to Delta, they always send a crew to cheer for me whenever I depart somewhere, complete with water cannon and police escort.

(This was really for the SLC-NRT inaugural, to complement the SLC-CDG from a year earlier.)

Love the way a telephoto makes those power lines look so ominous at the end of the runway. ^

There is an excellent "sticky" thread at the top of this forum that covers photo posting procedures for most photo hosting sites.

You have to remember...AirTran is a LCC, so plastic cups are pretty common.
