hawkwrench Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Man I wish somebody would make a 1/35 or 1/24 scale Oshkosh ARFF. That would make a sweet looking model painted up in that slime yellow hi-viz look!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 A freaking B-2 on departure from Offutt AFB, low and banking near my house... unfortunately didn't have a camera handy. It was pretty low, but still hard as crap to see at certain angles... Cheers, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stan in YUL Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Saw a Piaggio P180 Avanti this morning leaving YUL (Dorval QC Canada) heading west. First for me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moose135 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 On Saturday, we had a Kalitta cargo 727 drop in to KCLT. Today, N104HR, a B727 operated by Paradigm Air, arrived on a charter with the NBA Houston Rockets for their Monday game against the Charlotte Bobcats. It's not every day you see a pair of B727s parked together on the ramp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye's Hobbies Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Its either been too cloudy to see much of anything or when you can stuff is just too far away. I have been trying to get some time elapse shots though. But when one does present itself...I snap it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

82Whitey51 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This is a cool thread to have up, interesting to hear what other folks are seeing in their neck of the woods. I live and work right near NAS Pax River though, feels like I'd be cheating to post anything! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

82Whitey51 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 OK then...saw these guys departing while out on lunch earlier. The actual hook up was out over the Chesapeake Bay.

tdogg Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 It's not every day you see a pair of B727s parked together on the ramp. Luckily I get to see this quite often around here, purilator and cargojet both send their 727's here. In fact until a couple of years ago when fedex also had a 727 here we'd get to see 3 at once but fedex replaced the 27 with a 57 which isn't too bad either lol. Sadly haven't been out lately so no pics but get to see the usual embraer's, airbus', and 737's fly overhead my home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_superbug Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This flew over my house about 15mins ago. I live in Melbourne, Australia, and I've never seen something painted up like that. Any ideas? Chris (who's loving his 200mm lens!) Hi Chris It belongs to Pearl Aviation. the Aircraft is a Dornier 328 is operated by associate company Aero Rescue on behalf of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority regards Brendon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 At 2pm I saw the Prime Ministers plane , CC- 144615. No photo as I was getting in the car, and live nearish the airport. Guess he was in town giving money away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin_sam_2000 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Hi all, It has been a while since I post4ed anything in this thread. Partly as there wasn't much happening around here, and partly since I have been having Server issues with my site. Both issues are solved and here are a few I have taken here at CYOW! first, A Private A320 that flew in members of the African Union for meetings with the Government next we have a nice(ish) night take off shot of a CF-18 188935. The lighting around here for night shots is not the greatest. I can only get good shots when they taxi by slowly: and finally, an AN-124 that came in to pick up a satellite the other week: thanks for looking, Sean Edited January 24, 2013 by martin_sam_2000 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dylan Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Sean I love that night hornet shot. well I finally got to use my 70-200 in anger for the first time. it is unbelievably sharp and fast. I cant wait till i get use it with a D800 I learned to taxi on this airplane Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I couldnt get a pic of it but there was an FA-18D doing touch and goes for a bit. It was all white with blue on the virtical stabs. No other markings at all. i have never seen it before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shawn C. Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 No pics, but I got to see 6 Singapore F-15SG aircraft today up close and in flight! Way cool to see Strike Eagles with the GE engines! Nice guys flying them, too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Swedish invasion at Offutt AFB... Came out of the commissary this morning to the sight of 8 JAS 39C Gripens sitting in row near base ops. Sweet sight. Unfortunately no camera on me. All had three tanks and Lightening pods. Tail numbers 249, 252. 254, 255, 264, 269, 278 and 282. Cheers, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
