I didn’t do a lot of commercial aircraft spotting this year but I did get to see some unique airframes this year. These photos in my #2023Top4AviationScores are from the Las Vegas area and OSH.

1) Netherlands A330 arriving at LAS.
2) Luftwaffe A400 departing Creech AFB
3) a Boeing Dreamlifter, the NASA SuperGuppy, and part of a DL A359…shot from the flight deck of a KC-135.
4) a U2 spy plane trying to land at OSH.

A F-16 from Nellis AFB banking left over the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Feb 9, 2023.

“Ghosts In The Machine”

Bonus points if you get that reference.

This is what happens when you go to the LAX In-N-Out with only one camera body and an attached 300mm prime lens because you left your 35mm prime in your camera bag; a C-17 lands on 24R and so you shoot with what you have.

Gotta love that Dreamliner wingflex.

There was a plane around here somewhere, at some point.

Vaporware?

Here's a couple of shots that I took earlier this month from the departure end of Nellis AFB, NV. I like both of these photos because of the context that the commercial overflights add to the B-52 and F-22.

Well this was a fun day. Happen to have the fortunate opportunity to spend most of the day with my friend Nick and his two boys doing #avgeek stuff.

Was able to photograph this German A400 departing.

Saturday, January 28, 2023, was a beautiful day in Louisville and at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Had the opportunity to capture N318UP operating as UPS flight 5X221 leaving SDF for CGN.

It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

Enjoy this Latam #A350 landing at KMIA in January 2020, from today’s #onedrivememories
