Jeff,  That P-2 shot is a real keeper.  Wish I had thought ahead and come out to Gateway today.

I got an email from a buddy of mine stating that the DC10 arrived into IWA earlier today, around 17:57.  Did anyone get any photos?

I got an email from a buddy of mine stating that the DC10 arrived into IWA earlier today, around 17:57.  Did anyone get any photos?

Was this a visual confirmation of it arriving, or did he just see it on Flightaware?  I was there until 5:50 and didn't see it (or know I should have waited another seven minutes), but I also did a 360º visual sweep and didn't see anything big inbound.

LOADED .45

Quite Nice!

Tanker 911 is sitting on ICE ramp next to Tanker 45. I've seen it with mine own eyes this evening. Don't know when it arrived.
