Just watching traffic on a busy airport is fascinating me.
watching every aircraft appear out of the blue, stretch its legs, and
finally return back to earth.
Wondering about the passengers... Who is arriving home
Who is away from their loved ones...
who is the jetsetter, and which one is the one with heartache
It is more than just watching. It is about dreaming...

I'm really getting hooked on that Aeroworx scenery!

Always something new to discover. Cool

The details in this shot just don't seem to end.

Excellent shot... and great theme. Nothing more pleasant to me than watching traffic at an airport.

Interesting story. It does make you wonder, when you see all the aircraft coming and going from an airport, and the thousands of passengers that pass through each day, about the stories each passenger may have.

Very good shot, with excellent choice of scenery and very interesting (and good-looking too) AI traffic. Well done

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

That brings my mind back to last night. I was outside all night. I looked up and saw more than one bizjet go streakin' through the sky in the very early hours of the morning. I wondered "Who is going anywhere at this time?" Must be expensive to charter a bizjet during the night. Anybody know?

Our local charter company doesn't charge any extra for early/late flights, unless they require overnight stays as part of the charter.
