Flights were Newcastle To London Heathrow, Heathrow to San Diego and then San Diego out to Maui after an overnight stop in San Diego.
One for any Arsenal fans! - our BA A321 (G-EUXD) gave a nice view of the current Arsenal ground (The Emirates) with their old ground (Highbury) visible to the left & below.
Concorde G-BOAB looking a little bit sad as we cross the 27Left threshold
Some heavies shot from terminal 5 B gates :
G-VIIA
G-BYGG
5B windows were clean enough for this shot of G-VFAB departing 27R
Two of G-CIVK off to San Francisco
On board my ride to San Diego (BA 777-200 G-YMMD) with a nice view of the departing traffic as we queue for 27R.
Terminal 5 C gates with one A380 visible
11 hours later and nearly there
Over the threshold of runway 27 at San Diego's Lindbergh Field - the aircraft carrier is the USS Midway an excellent museum.
Taxiing past the Alaskan terminal - where I would be departing from at 7:00 the next morning
N713AS
N535AS - note the Hawaiian Lei added to the Alaskan Eskimo - guess N535AS is used on Hawaii flights - perhaps mine in the morning!
Arriving in Kahului after a 6 hour flight on Alaskan B737-800 N534AS
At this point the camera spends a week pointed at Whales and not planes!
All too soon I am back at Kahului face to face with the Alaskan Eskimo again- it's time to head back to San Diego for the last few days of my holiday.
On board 737-800 N593AS looking at sister ship N585AS
B717 N487HA departing ahead of us on an "inter Island" flight
Nice sunset as we head east over the Pacific - wishing I was going west - but "all good things" etc
Thanks for looking
