Dallas/Fort Worth Area Airports -12/2015 (Image Heavy)
Hey Guys,
Between graduating college, family and personal medical adventures, I have fallen quite a bit behind on editing and posting... well much of anything. As such, this set is my "return" to Texas if you will, but I haven't actually posted the photos from my farewell spotting with friends (maybe in 2016) That being said, I think I scored some nice images this past weekend and wanted to share. As indicated in the title, this thread will be rather robust in terms of image quantity (and I hope quality :) )
Starting off with some terminal action from ATL and DFW
I was excited to be back on one of my former AirTran 717s for my flight to DAL, and these two were set up nicely for a shot

While a quick lap around DFW before departing on Tuesday netted some nice views

Old livery AA 737s are increasingly turning up with new-livery radomes, so I was pleased to catch a pure oldie

On arrival, I stuck around DAL for a little bit to enjoy the Biz and WN traffic

I dashed over to DFW for a 747 that wound up landing on the East side, but stuck around for some nice light

I thought I would have to work hard to bag the new 787s, but as with this summer, the Asia flights are perfectly timed for photos

The evening light was just divine out there at Founder's Plaza

And I kinda pushed it a little with this MD-11 a short while after sunset...

This ended day one, but the rarer and more interesting catches were yet to come ;)
