A good reason why it never hurts to ask..

I went to Lehigh Valley International Airport this morning (KABE) to do some spotting. Turns out 55mm lenses aren't that good for shooting ground to air. :P I wandered into the FBO to ask if it would be okay if I took pics of planes on the ground. Being post-9/11 and all, I figure it's best to ask. The lady at the desk went to ask one of the pilots if it would be okay, and the guy said "Sure! Here, I'll take him out on the ramp." This drew a smile to my face. :) We walked into the hangar and there was a beautiful black and gold Sabreliner. I have a pic (not too good) of that one. The main attraction here is the Citation. :)

I'm headed to Somerset and Sky Manor now, so expect pics from there this afternoon. ;)

That's one of the best photographs, of a non-flying aircraft, that I can remember.

(I gotta go back and look at it some more)..
