Have about 20gb of aviation related photos from this summer. I´ve had a chance to visit so far this summer KMCO, KSAN, KLAX, KJFK, EGLL, EKCH, ESSA, ESGG, ESGP.

Here are 5 that turned out good I think, but if you have any tips, be sure to let me know! Smiley

Great shots!  I just got back from NASA Ames in San Jose and flew a Q400 down there from BOI.  We got off right next to a 737-900 haha, what camera do you use?

I just moved from Nasa Ames, lived on base there for 4 years.  Didn't realize any SimV members were flying in and out of there.

Never fear, Truck....

I still keep the flag flying for you!... Wink...!

My regular 'Frisco Bay sim-flights often include Moffett Federal Airfield (KNUQ), close to Highway 101, admiring the two big Hangars, and the the enormous Airship Hangar!

Lots of interesting "stuff" going on, at the nearby NASA AMES laboratories!

Paul...FS 2004... Cool...!

I was apart of the Idaho Science and Aerospace Scholars group that came through if you heard of us.  We got to go to the 120x80 Wind tunnel and flew in the Sims there.  It was awesome!

The last Photo...

..the BIG fat-bellied monster.... Shocked...!

Make me wonder what is contained within the upper and lower fuselage space, above and below the narrow (height) passenger isle?

Paul... Smiley...!

That would be a Boeing 737-600.  The smallest Boeing they currently make.  Its a 3x3 isle, single deck.

Its probably a pharmaceutical (optical.. Wink...) illusion, but that 737 certainly looks a LOT fatter that my FS 2004, Boeing 737, Sim Aircraft!.... Shocked...!

A 737 for Seriously Obese Passengers!... Grin...!

Because the FS9 is a 737-400, a Classic series 737.  This is called a Next Gen, and its wider because they put more room in the isle for people to get in and out easier.

Wait.  This is a -400 series.  you can tell by how the engines are connected to the wing.  And -600/-700/-500 only have one emergency exit door.

Correct, LN-BRI is a 737-405. A former Braathens bird I think.

Glad you got the watch Paul, keep an eye on it for me!  Hangar 1 is now a giant skeleton.  They've been taking her skin off in a huge asbestos removal project.  Looks like a gigantic jungle gym now.
