I think this may be the best group of "Holiday Heavies" photographs ever. Excellent work one and all.

Purple Haze - Early morning departure. You can see the shadow from the MD-11 cast on the building in the background.

Thanks Joe, Anna, and Paul regarding the "Ground Clutter" shot. Dave and I were both down at that end of the runway. I'm sure Dave got a similar shot. I don't recall seeing that many little guys all waiting at one time.  There seemed to be something holding things up, not sure what.

Actually, AmFlight's departures seem to have gotten looser over the past few years.  I remember shooting the holiday traffic in '09 and '10 when they were based on the north side of the field, and like clockwork, they'd all cross the bridge just east of the tower to the south side for departure, all in a row, followed by what looked like an old SAC-style MITO departure of all of them from the south runway.  It was really cool to see, and your shot totally reminded me of that.

I really like the "head-on" shot of the 3-holer Ned. Nice work sir.

One nice thing about this year's Holiday Heavies is all the 'new' spots we seem to keep finding.  :D
"You don't become a professional simply by earning certificates, adding ratings, or getting a paycheck for flying. Rather, professionalism is a mindset. It comes from having the attitude, the ethics, and the discipline to do the right thing — every time, all the time, regardless of who's watching."

That was certainly a pleasant surprise for me this year Paul. A couple of new spots, angles, and options - a good thing  ;)

Jeff, Love this one as well as your V.2 747 landing.  One unexpected cool thing about the DHL 767 shot is the sloping taxi way in the foreground.  Really adds something.

Quite the climb angle! Always looks good when the gear is going up. Glad you could make it to Phoenix for the holiday rush.
