Wow. 2+ years and no Scottsdale thread?
I had to run some errands today that took me out near KSDL, so I stopped by for a bit. Caught this gorgeous Falcon 900 arriving.

There have been many SDL shots posted but I guess they've all been by type instead of by facility.
I guess you found the secret "hidey hole" there, eh? Great Shot!!

Nice shot Joe. That's a good vantage point for the runway 21 approach shots.
I typically prefer the classic lines of the older-model Learjets to the more recent models, but damned if this LJ60 ain't purdy.

This Aztec has been in and out of Willie quite a bit lately, but distance and heat haze have conspired against me getting a good shot of it there. So I was pretty stoked when it showed up at Scottsdale today.

Came in high and landed long, so I didn't get the shot I had wanted. Then there's the whole black airplane against a bright sky metering problem as well. I probably got a bit heavy-handed with the gradient tool and blah blah blah I'll stop complaining about the shot now.

The weekend certainly could have used a bit more "unusual."
On our way out on Sunday, I was walking past one of the Hornet drivers as a Cirrus made a screaming low pass and I had to laugh because he just blurted out "Sure, they'll let the civilians beat up the runway but we have to stay UP THERE!"
Here's another low fly by. I saw two or three of these on Saturday.
My attempt at the Challenger. Too much sky?

Maybe not too much sky but you've got a "reverse crop" thing going on...
Just one opinion mind you but unless you've got a smoke trail or afterburner cones coming out the back, I personally prefer to see a tad more room in front of the subject than behind. Makes the brain see space for the plane to move into.

Been after this shot for a while - I've wanted a good prop blur/panning shot against that wall with little to no foreground or background clutter. Finally got what I was after last week, and I love that the colorscheme on the aircraft echos that of the landscape.

Nice ones, Jay! I especially like the second one, and it is a Challenger.
First one is a Baron, though. Duchess has a t-tail. They're pretty rare these days.
Thanks Chris.
Wasn't really sure on #1 as it doesn't look so "Baron-ish" in later frames. Must be an older one maybe...
It is an older 55 series one, where the newer ones are 58's. I spent a couple of hours on the deck at DVT with a pilot who has one a week or so ago and he talked my ear off about it. Plane owners do like to talk about their airplanes. :D

Matt,
Next time you fly over my house, wave. ;D
I was also thinking of shooting out here. It's not too far from home and I could sharpen my tacks sorta-speak. Where are the best views? And would a 70-200mm suffice?
Thanks.
There are two spots on either side of the runway toward the northeast end of the airport that are both really good. I think I've got a map I can shoot you via email. 70-200 is perfect for aircraft over the numbers and cruising past you, but a bit under-gunned when it comes to the mountains-in-the-background final approach shots that are really sort of the signature of shooting out there. I'd say 300+ is ideal for those shots, with the 400-500 range being perfect. Heat haze off of Frank Lloyd Wright can become an issue during the summer.

Love that King Air shot, Tom. Tack-sharp, solid prop blur, phenomenal light, and caught at the moment the aircraft was in the one spot where the background isn't cluttered like crazy.
Thanks Joe! There's definitely a lot of clutter towards that end of the runway. Even at a whopping 3 fr/sec I managed to get a clear shot.

Yes, February and Double Trouble Two flew over in formation, did a mid-field break and landed for the night. I was hoping to catch them going back out on another leg, but I never saw them after they landed.

Jeff, 5D3 appears to be working well! Curious what focal length you were using on the photo with the thumb-like rock formation. I really need to get out there to shoot. Great light and background. Not all that far from my house. Used to wotk there in the late 70's.

Thanks Scott. Thus far, I could not be happier with the 5D3. That was shot with my 100-400L at 365mm focal length. Since the 5D3 is a full frame sensor, I don't get any additional reach like I do with the crop sensor on my 7D. This image is cropped at 100% at 2.39:1 ratio. Regarding KSDL, I think it is a great place to shoot, especially in the afternoon/evening. Let me know and I'd enjoy shooting with you at Scottsdale sometime.

Thanks Tom. I half expected to see you out there this afternoon. Interesting side note; when I was younger and nearly 80 pounds lighter (with my hair halfway down my back), I climbed Tom's Thumb at least a half dozen times. One of these days, I need to dig those photos out and scan a few for posting humor purposes only - damn hippy ;D

Thanks Scott! The light had completely gone away, but it came back out for the last three or four arrivals of the evening and was just amazing.
That is sometimes the very best light when it peeks out just before it goes down.

Looks like a cross between the Curtiss-Wright X-19 and the Piaggio. The big problem with small diameter rotors/props is getting enough thrust in vertical mode. Think of the difference in force generated by the rotor of a Hughes 500 and a 6 or 7 foot propeller hooked to a 300hp engine. Not that anybody asked!

Thanks, you too, Tom! Hey, have they finished
our parking lot yet? When Ashlie and I were up there a little over a week ago it was all closed off, wasn't sure is this was going to continue for a few weekends since it didn't look like they were completely done.

Yes,
our lot is all finished and open for business (along with the addition of a new sign posted on the wall).

Is it a good sign, or a bad sign?

Well, not a good sign. But I think it will continue to be ok to shoot out there on weekends and after hours during regular business days.
From this past Saturday...

Tom, both of the Citation shots are very nice, I really like the first one with the white jet against the dark mountains, plus the sunlight on the jet at the same time.

Thanks Harvey. Even though it was dusty and very humid out, the clouds provided some nice contrast.

Upon request of the second pass, SDL tower must have responded with: "Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full."

Thank you for the kind words Harvey. Like you, I love those monsoon backgrounds ;)
I have not had much opportunity to photograph of late, but Matt was kind enough to invite me and everything fell into place. It was fun to spend some time with Matt and Ashley waiting for the more affluent frequent flyers to pay us a visit ;D

Jeff, it was great to see you yesterday, both Ashlie and I had a lot of fun hanging out at Scottsdale with you. I'm glad we ended up deciding on Scottsdale, I think the clouds ended up giving us the dramatic feel that we were going for.

Thanks Harvey, this is one of the best looking PC-12s that I have ever seen! With the clouds coming in yesterday, the light was fading almost all afternoon. But, I like what the clouds and light (or the lack of light) did for the photos.

Gorgeous set of shots, Tom.
Great shots Tom, I am a real fan of the shots that are below the ridge line with the aircraft highlighted against the mountains instead of the sky. Very nice!
Tom - As I've come to expect from you, this recent brace of images is clear confirmation that you have mastered catching the golden light at SDL. Your angle on the Citation really helps to show the best profile of this jet.
Very nice shots, Tom, you truly are becoming the SDL Master!

These shots over the threshold white stripes are outstanding, it's a great location and background. The stripes add some light under the aircraft giving it more definition. Nice work Tom.

Very cool shot Tom, I was at Barrett Jackson this afternoon and saw this guy overhead the site as we were leaving. It almost sounded like a hot air balloon when he added power. George must be making good money to advertised like this.

Managed to squeeze a little money out of George shooting this a couple years ago. Don't think they ever went with the idea to wrap all their vehicles with an image of the airship, but I've seen my stuff on a few of their ads.
It's actually a dual-envelope hot air balloon wrapped in an airship-shaped bag with control surfaces (also hot air filled) at the rear. Surprisingly nimble in calm air. Can't maneuver vertically like a blimp, but it can turn pretty tightly.
Thanks for the info Jay, pretty interesting machine really.

Scott - this was part of the Collings Foundation annual Wings of Freedom Tour.
Thanks, I should pay more attention to these things! I was at a car show that morning near Bell and Thompson Peak Parkway and saw the B-24 fly over and later a P-51. Had only short lenses with me so I didn't stop at Scottsdale.

No, we just have a 20-year-old drip system that we use every know and then during the summer to help some of our bushes and the two trees we just planted last year. The main drip line sprung several leaks due to rocky soil, and instead of putting in five or six couplers only two have the old hose spring more leaks, I opted for a full replacement. My back and my knees hate me.

Very nice Matt, that white jet against the dark background with that lighting, perfection. There have been lots of great shots from that location also.
Thank you, Harvey! This location at Scottsdale is one of my favorites, you just can't beat the background.

Attended some marketing training for the bank I work for in North Scottsdale. Having not shot anything aviation related that hasn't had a feathered body and a beak, I figured I'd wait out rush hour and see what surprises KSDL had in store.

Being an ASU alum, I'm convinced the copilot is flashing you the "fork 'em" sign.
That's a fantastic shot, with or without the "fork 'em".
Tom - I concur with Dave, a terrific image of a wonderful airframe. I'm always amazed at the size of the engines on the Citation X. No wonder that thing can scoot through the sky quickly.

Tom - Let me join Harvey in expressing how much I like your last two images. They are both exceptional. Low light aviation photography at its finest. Your panning technique on the Falcon is nothing short of amazing. You should contact the owner of the 2000EX and sell him a very large framed print ;)

This is the only one I will get to tonight, but this evening was a fine evening at KSDL. Bizjet traffic was lighter than it has been the last two days, but the soft light made everything better. Right around dusk two aircraft were spotted due east of the airport flying in formation. It turned out they were the first of two pairs of F-18's headed into Scottsdale for some fuel and possible overnight stay. While the first pair got set up to land a Medivac UH-60 came from northwest and flew the length of the runway. It was icing on the cake. Kicking myself in the butt for trying to be a shutter hero, but I alas I still cam away with one or two that I found acceptable of keeping.
Such a great shot Ross! Wish I had my camera out and ready when that biz jet showed up.

Went to Scottsdale one day in the hopes of catching a Black Sheep Harrier departure but it appears to have been broken. Right before I decided to leave though I noticed three Blackhawks coming in for landing so I decided to stick around for a few more minutes to catch them landing. I noticed one of them was carrying something strange on the side of the fuselage which I later discovered (thanks to the help of Joe) is the launcher racks for the M139 VOLCANO Mine Dispenser system. Never heard of it before but it was very cool to see and to read about.

Cool shot Tom, I'm a little surprised they didn't at least wash this thing before flying into SDL. Looks like it was rode hard and put away wet! ;D

Not exactly sure but this aircraft may be a U.S. Army RO-6A, part of the Aerial Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance system. This was en route to Fort Bliss/El Paso, TX.
Definitely an RO-6, they're replacing the EO-5Cs at Biggs AAF. Great catch!

Thanks Harvey! My dad works very close to the airport so he sent me a video of them landing so I raced over there to catch them on departure.

So where is everyone shooting afternoon arrivals from at KSDL since the construction has completely ruined our old location?
Military at SDL is always a plus.
