    Thanks. The bad part is that I was on the sunny side for the Convair,but heard the ATC send some planes to a different runway,so I figured I better move. Turns out I should have stayed put.

    Nice shots. Any idea why Virgin diverted?
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
