ANA_767-300_JA622A_NRT_1011Dsmall.jpgWhat a beautiful place to shoot. Photographed from the Marraod Narita hotel upper floor restaurant. You sit down for a nice breakfast buffet (not cheap- it's $23) and shoot airplanes as they come in. Not many places like this in the world. I'll definetely be back..Oct 29, 2011

AVIANCA_A318_N592EL_MIA_1011_JP_.jpgA318's are extremely rare. The cost to operate the airplane relative to the amount of passengers it can handle makes it a difficult airplane to make money with, hence it's relative rarity around the world. Avianca picked up the A318's from now defunct Mexicana (R.I.P.) and are used mostly out of Brazil, but make their way up to Miami tooOct 27, 2011

AIRFRANC_747-400_INTLAIRSPACE_1011small.jpgFirst time ever getting this kind of photo in U.S. airspace (you are more likely to see this over busy European airspace). I'm in a Jetblue E190 flying BOS-CLT and from my left side window seat, I saw this 747 from a distance on the right side window, so luckily the next row over was empty so I grabbed the camera and as the AF 747 got closer I snapped away. Most came out unsharp (typical through airplane windows with zoom lens), but this was good enough to share. We were on Southerly track south of New York.. -if you know where it was headed please put in comments belowOct 27, 2011

KOREAN_A380_HL7613_NRT_1011_JP_.jpgYou won't find this scene at any airports in the U.S. or Europe. Every departing flight in Japan is honored by the ground crew working that flight, waving slowly back and forth to the passengers as the airplane begins to taxi out, ending with a big bow before the crew heads back to their station. This is respect, culture and love of thy fellow man. I was honored and delighted to have witnessed this numerous times during my visit to Tokyo's airportsOct 20, 2011
