Background of a lifetime

because who else here has use of a runway to an active airport?



I'm getting the hang of this new Nikon. I was on a time limit and could only "afford" to take >10 pics and this was the best. Comments/thoughts appreciated!

i blame it on the tungsten lighting on top of an adjacent hangar. bish shut off right as I got done taking the pics

the chrome on those corners are pissing me off. im going to try and open them up and paint it black, otherwise im going to get blacked-out L's and revert back to an incandescent bulb

nice pic, but you're on a taxiway, not a runway! blue edge lights and a solid yellow centreline!

hahaha looks sweet though. did you turn on the ARCALS (PCL) with a VHF handheld?
