A father/son day.....at Ft Lauderdale

Last Saturday turned out to be a nice father/son day for me as my son and I headed out for a little excursion time at Ft Lauderdale. For a little while, it almost seemed like Fall is on the way with a cooler day, little humidity, but, later in the afternoon, the summer returned. However, we got some nice sights while we were there....

We took this as we were leaving - a Columbian Air Force Boeing 707 - I'm going to see if this is still there on Monday - would like to catch this on a take off roll...


A rare sight at Ft Lauderdale - an American Airlines Boeing 767-300ER - this one on a charter flights - taking the Miami Dolphins to Minneapolis for their Sunday NFL game against the Minnesota Vikings.


An aging Saab 340 parked without propellers
.

My first catch of a jetBlue Embraer 190 in new colors.


Miami Air brought this Boeing 737-800 in from Las Vegas - an other charter...


Canjet operating one of their two weekly flights from Canada during the non-season - soon, these will be overseas leased aircraft operating three times a week - some special schemes to catch soon...


A very nice private Gulfstream G-IV taxiing out for departure.



Some more time spent behind the camera lens......
