DELTA_717_N935AT_ATL_1013ZH_JP_small.jpg1104 viewsI am pleased to share with you this once in a lifetime photo showcasing Delta's entire McDonnell Douglas narrow-body fleet, which includes: 717 (MD95), DC9-50, MD88, MD90. A tremendous amount of logistics and manpower went into making this photo a reality, in addition to the fact that the minute the photo shoot ended, 3 of the 4 airplanes were immediately towed to the terminal for their next flight assignments. I was honored to be invited to photograph this event, thank you Delta Air Lines!

romaniayr-abb707_JFK_0910.jpg1080 viewsI know many of you will enjoy this beauty departing JFK's rwy 13L. To see a 707, let alone in action in 2010 is a very special treat. This once common airliner back in the 60's and 70's is today a very rare sight! It should be noted that this same 707 used to fly scheduled service from Bucharest to New York when it flew for Romanian Airline TAROM. UPDATE MARCH 2014: This airplane is parked in Brunswick Georgia. Future unsure.

Seen here is the view of my balcony facing rwy 35/17. The view is amazing but with no A/C in the room and noise from airplanes almost all night long it's definetely not for everyone!
