      Good angle!

      From jumpseat days, I know that those windows are quite high up for the crew.

      Hmmmm.....maybe nobody is flying the plane - spooky!

      Love the shot - wish we had a good location to shot here.....so many of the great airport areas for photo taking have been blocked off and banned since 9-11.

      r2.4, FrizzText & sfPhotocraft - Thanks for the comments. Interesting remark r2.4.. I wasn't aware of that. I know Beoing has eliminated their "eyeb row windows" at least on the 737s... I wonder if it could have been done with the MD-80s had they continued on.. FrizzText - thanks for the invite, it was done a while back :) Good group by the way. sfPhotocraft - LOL... I hope that someone was behind the wheel :) So far security hasn't been too much of a problem at YUL.. you never know the future though.

      FrizzText - Done!
      tornadof3pilot - Pretty much every model of plane has crashed or had some serious incident. Sometimes it's the airline not the airplane that's at fault. Sometimes it's human error. Sometimes it's just bad luck. Let's see what comes out of the Spanair investigation.

      i love these aircraft even tho they r like riding in a tube....

    33. caribb (42 months ago | reply)

      cody_armstrong - Thanks for the comment! They are really great so long as your are up front. Just don't sit next to the engines.
