Didn't quite realize that I had some serious weather on final, thought I would be vectored around for final and would get a breathtaking cockpit shot of the clouds on final, nope, ATC took me right into it.
KTKI - McKinney Municipal Airport (there is occasionally an airliner there) McKinney, Texas, U.S.A.
Plane - Boeing 727-200 Advanced. True-to-life photographic cockpit and full interior veiws.
Weather - Visibility 30 miles, Clouds, Thunderstorm, 1500' to 9000'. Wind, from the south at 23 knots indicated, pressure, 29.89. Severe Icing and Turbulence.
Traffic, 100percent, lots of idiots taking Cessnas up and cruising around in it.
Ok here it is, hope its ok!
...
Pic was taken just after clearing the runway, the black cloud, ya....that would be right on the approach corridor.

I dont know, I saw one plane as he was landing (the son of a ..... tried to cut me off) but he flew behind me on the left side and disappeared into the clouds. I'm going to try to get some more weather shots. Tongue Though, yes it was quite jumpy, that is probably my graphics card, lol. Roll Eyes
