Except it's now "Line Up And Wait" instead of position and hold...   

Nice shot!!

Except it's now "Line Up And Wait" instead of position and hold...   

Or as one Southwest pilot was overheard saying on the radio in Portland, "Hurry Up And Wait."

[jslugman]

I still don't understand that one. Please, let's change things we've been doing for ages (and actually worked) because change is good. Right? Riiiiiggghhhttt.......

[Jay Beckman]

Apparently "Position And Hold" was different than most of the rest of the world.  "Line Up And Wait" is actually the approved verbiage in ICAO countries.

Now, why we have to "cave" to ICAO conventions is beyond me and worthy of a different discussion.

Typically not a fan of rear-quarter shots, but dang that's nice.

[Jay Beckman]

I have front quarter too but the nose gear is already up and the mains are just moving toward the wells and it's just not "pretty."

Well this is a BAe 125-1000 but it seemed silly to start a new post for such a minor variation on the HS-125 family.  Taken with a Mamiya 645 on Fuji transparency film.  Most likely Provia 100F.
