NO you wont, those are on lease or will be leased to THAI Cargo!

Nice shot Jayden. Does anyone know if they also have DC8s 70 series? If so is there a chance of seeing them out.

Thought I saw a 743 departing of 34Left from the office window ... looked twice - thought it was TF-AAA/B then noticed the Extended Upper Deck and no winglets.

Unfortunately they do not. Only 747's and the 77F's that are leased to Thai Cargo.

Thanks Brian ; I was aware of the lease to Thai but read that Southern may be getting some more B777Fs.

There are a couple in storage so perhaps Southern may have its eyes on those airframes. And Air France is reassessing its cargo ops and has already sold two B777Fs to FedEx so perhaps that may be another source.

Sorry to spoil the party, but N704SA which was the colourful aircraft somebody posted earlier in the thread, is now in an all white scheme, i photographed her on my recent trip to LAX.

I shot N704SA on December 2 last at LAX wearing the colours, so I am now considering myself a lucky guy. LOL
Cheers John
