SD3-60 in Las Vegas

Post by acw367 » Sat Nov 02, 2024 7:39 pm

Visited Las Vegas last weekend. With temperatures in the 30s it was a lot of heat haze. Did manage one reasonable shot of a very rare aircraft at dawn (thank you jet lag). There are now less than 40 SD3-60 still flying in the world. This was delivered 36 years ago in 1988 as G-OLBA with Capital Airlines, then became D-CCAS with NightExpress before heading to the USA.

I'd love to see or even fly in a 360 again. I loved them for short trips from GCI.
