A while back, I mentioned missing a photo of the Alaska Airlines 737-900 in the midnight blue paint scheme. Well, here it is! I got a ton of shots of a British Airways 747 coming into Logan today, too. Most of the pictures are crap because of the clouds. Hopefully I can get a few… Continue reading Alaska 737

D-AIFA
Poor Reggie. We just came back from a long walk, and he’s exhausted. We absolutely must get a fan for the bedroom soon. My friend Steven offered up his air conditioner since he moved into a new condo with central air. I do believe we’re going to take him up on that. Memorial Day. It’s… Continue reading D-AIFA
Photography Failure
It’s a nice day outside. Well, it’s warm but a bit humid. I’d seen an idea on airliners.net for a place to take some pictures. The spot is prime, but the aviation gods weren’t smiling on me today. ATC had planes landing on runways where photography just wasn’t that good. I have a few photos… Continue reading Photography Failure
Good Eats
Today was a good day, and it was quite yummy. I slept in a little later than I had wanted but it was good to sleep in. Then I headed up to pick up Beth. We did some shopping. Our first stop was a place in Marblehead called Fruits of the Four Seasons. They had… Continue reading Good Eats
LH425
I went to Target tonight to pick up a couple of little things and I saw a Lufthansa A340 taking off from Logan. It made me smile. There is something graceful and beautiful about the A340. Sometimes I get jealous because I want to be on the aircraft that are taking off. That wasn’t the… Continue reading LH425
Rare MD11 sighting
I was craving ice cream tonight about 9:00 and set out on foot with $4 in my pocket in the hopes of finding ice cream. About two blocks away there is a convenience store that I’d never been in, so I tried it. I got there just as they were closing, but I got my… Continue reading Rare MD11 sighting
de plane! de plane!
It never fails… The planes are flying overhead today, and I was going to take my camera while walking Reggie, but I decided not to run back into the house to get my keys. Well, wouldn’t you know that I missed a fantastic shot of an Alaska Airlines 737-900 with winglets in their midnight blue… Continue reading de plane! de plane!
Photo tidbit
You know that shot of the Lufthansa 747 I caught yesterday that I said was crappy… Well, wouldn’t you know that this was the flight that brought home Christian Science Monitor reporter Jill Carroll. It’s not THAT signficant, right? Well, today I feel like I have taken part in a little piece of history.
Castle Island
Reggie and I went to Castle Island today. It was good for him to get out and walk, and I got to take some pictures. Unfortunately, a lot of those pictures are on my 35mm camera. Most of the Reggie pictures are on his blog. I did get to see a Northwest A330 landing. I… Continue reading Castle Island
Crappy Plane Photos
These pictures are crap, but I was treated to a rare 747 landing in Boston today.
