Some aviation pics, vids...

Here is a picture that my son took of the A380. He is an Air Traffic Controller at LAX and was going between buildings while following this aircraft. He said that this plane is so big that they have to unload it and move it away from the gate when done. They give it 10 miles clearance and it is still barely enough.

Who do you fly for? You ever overnight in Dulles?

 

[The Pol]

I generally overnight in Dulles a few times a month... it is a decent overnight.

I fly for... err... the only US EMB170 operator

Here's a few cockpit/pilot's perspective shots as well. They're not nearly as plush as the Embraer, unfortunately.

That plane is so cool. Ever since I saw an A10 at an airshow though, it's my over all favorite. At least for jet powered aircraft.

I miss the flying. Thanks for starting this thread Pol!

My pleasure... keep it coming! As pilots, there are a lot of things we take for granted. Some days when I am sipping my coffee at 37,000' and watching the sunrise, it hits me... this is the coolest job ever!

 

[pen25]

i have seen a couple of those views many times. dfw and tul. mind if ask if you fly aa?

 

[The Pol]

Nope, I am not in AA

 

[pen25]

[hopdog]

Thats awesome. I have pictures of some cool planes I have been on; Leer, Piaggio Avanti, Pilatus, but I can't find them. Here are a couple of the interior of... I think it was a Hawker.

As for planes I have FLOWN... I don't think anyone is interested in seeing a Beechcraft sport 150!

Who needs stinkin pilots? Heres a pic of my bird

 

[KatoKiyo]

Who knew there were so many pilots on this board?!! I'm currently doing an integrated pilot course in Moncton, Canada. I fly the Diamond Eclipse now... not quite as glamorous as some of these planes...

 

[The Pol]

Welcome aboard Moncton... that is my alternate when I fly into Halifax!
