Very nice shot of an awesome classic!

Was it a 16R arrival today?

Thanks Maikha - yes it was a 16R arrival. It was a nice surprise as we had expected the African International DC8 earlier in the week.

Im just love the second life cargo jets, and Miami is great for old time cargo action, DC-8, DC-10, B-727 etc. I had a great couple of days there a few years back, with clear blue Florida skies. In particularl, I like the look of the LAN 767 and Arrow DC-8.

All the images



No so old but still nice to photograph.


Re-engined DC-8








Winglets on a B727

Yes Chris it is still here. Both the DC-8 & the A318 are both parked over at the general aviation area. However the A318 is blocking a decent view of the DC-8 as it is parked directly in front of it.
