Thanks Gavin!

Darryl, this shot was worth 5 just with the tri-holer in it. Adding the Georgian President's bird to it makes it a 10-shot for sure. Great catch!

Thank you Gary! Il62's are VERY rare for BOS!

4 engines? I'll bet that was a little loud, but it worked. Looking at today's cavernous engines, at least engineers could make a larger engine rather than having to add more engines. The Spruce Goose had 8. *shrug*

I miss flying in the 727's. A bygone era in air travel. Running bigger planes into areas not swarming with mosquitoesque RJ's. *sigh*
