Wicked morning alright ! .... Got both the arrival and departure on film , Marty got the stills , we were in the Blue car south of the off the fire station what selection of Boeing's 73s 76s 77s and the 787.
Lot of comment with the departure of that 767 ... STOL biggrin.gif and the climb out was impressive !

Man ... that 787 is so quiet , My damn vacuum cleaner makes more noise ! ohmy.gif
