Nice shots, but number four is confusing me. Is there another runway there to the side or is that an extreme crosswind landing?  ;)

Very odd viewpoint on the Fedex landing.  Plus I thought it was usually policy to get the nose gear on the ground before deploying thrust reversers.

Shot #4 is confusing me as well! What's the deal, I'd say it's a cross runway but I can't see it? :-?

Yeah from where he took it, its a picture of the across 28 and 32. May I ask where you took these because Im thinking University Blvd but it feels much farther southeast of the runway

Thanks for all the comments. I couldn't wait to get home to see what you guys replyed, I see its been quite busy, and you have just about straightened it out on your own. Flyboy 28 has it right, Runway 32 crosses Runway 28L and he is touching down right as he crossed 28L. The new spot that I have been trying, looks right down 28L and as soon as I got there, got everything out of the truck, They switched Runways on me, so I took the Fedex A300 from different angle, then jumped in the truck and moved over to 32. The shots are from Ewing Road, which is pretty far south of University Blvd. I have a few more, Watch for another post.

That ERJ-170 looks very nice in US Airways colors.
