Awsome series of shots! It's cool to get your perspective on airports, you get so close to the action!

Good luck on the new airport!

Smashing series of shots Silver. I like #5.

Hope you're as happy at your new home.

I think ive been on that last Southwest 737! I remember the heart with a number 1 in it. Is there only one number 1? or does it mean something entirely different?

Great shots how is the new airport?

[Fozzer]

Hi Silver...!
Many thanks for all the photo's...!
Knowing how much time I spend every day flying around the 'Frisco Bay area in the sim, its nice to see some "real" photo's of the area.
Looking forward to seeing some photo's of San Francisco International Airport now, and the surrounding area...!!!

I would love some distant photo's of the nearby hills, and the Bay...(on a clear day!)...LOL...!

Cheers Silver...!

Paul....off to South County of Santa Clara, (Q99), now... ... ...!

P.S. ...what about a couple of pics of Half Moon Bay, (KHAF).... ...!

Actually, at one time all Southwest's fleet had the heart with a "1" in it.  Now, it's just the ones that are still in the old colors.  The heart is absent from the newer blue scheme.

great shots silver, did you use a tripod or baggage cart for the long exposures?

Uh, actually I'm in San Diego now.

I used bag tugs, belt loaders, bag carts, railings, etc...anything I could set it on and try to hold REEAAALL still.  Not every shot came out haha.

[Craig.]

did you actually do any work that night then  ;D

[Silver1SWA]

LOL yeah.  That's why I couldn't use a tripod.  It wouldn't fit in my pocket so I could snap back to work any time.  Shots 2-5 were taken while the plane in shot 6 was on approach.  Just killed the time waiting for its arrival by taking pictures since I have to be at the gate ready for it to come in anyway.  

[Fozzer]

Uh, actually I'm in San Diego now.  Not San Francisco.  hehe  

Buggar.... ...!

You were my one and only link in the sim with the 'Frisco Bay and Silicon Valley area.... ...!

...anyway...

Have fun in San Diego...amongst all those palm trees... ...!

Paul...!

[Silver1SWA]

LOL no worries man.  I still fly home frequently.  I haven't even been down in San Diego for a full month yet and I have already flown home to the bay twice.  

[Saitek]

Really impressive.
