The company Ethiopian inaugurated last night the first route of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner for Brazil. The flight coming from Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital, touched the soil of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

This flight opens an important link between Brazil and Africa regions that lacked a better service by air, such as East Africa. The inaugural flight had 200 passengers which shows a great start for the company. Credit for the information AEROIN

Well I know I don't post here a lot (because otherwise I'd give you a long list every single day), but today was special. I finally got the chance to see a 787 Dreamliner as it flew in this afternoon for a weekend visit to ERAU DB. This is probably the best one I got today. What do you guys think of my shot?



I'm going to get more shots of it on Monday. Most likely of the inside and all around the airplane!!!

Got a bigger version of this shot? Would make a perfect wallpaper.

I saw an ANA Dreamliner in LAX a few weeks ago when I went to California. I couldn't get my camera since we were coming in to land. As for today I saw a Piaggio P.180 Avanti landing at the local municipal airport. It's rare as it doesn't come in that often. Dassault Falcons are common though.

[Taskforce 58]

It always make me smile the rest of the day when I hear the distinctive high pitch buzz-saw like sound of twin 5-blade propellers, followed by the sight of a Piaggio Avanti coming in to land at the airport (CYKZ) next to my office. And it just happened again 5 minutes ago. Also that was preceded by a Cessna Citation taking off.

[Viper 1]

Had my camera at the ready when these Strike Eagles flew over my house yesterday.

Were these Eagles from Lakenheath because if so I have a friend stationed there

2 Apache helicopters very low over our sports pitches. It was cool because everyone had no idea what they really were.

RWY 36 operations in effect today at KTIK, so had a few interesting aircraft pass just to my east, and then came a B-52 bomber right over my house. Always a treat watching that giant fly overhead, and it was at about 3,000 feet just starting the turn for final approach.

Hey all,

Got back from New York today. The army like to have a visible presence over Liberty Island probably as a show of force. Visiting yesterday, this took the form of a UH-60 Blackhawk.
