Took a trip down to PHL today to catch Obama's "Change" 757. Not much else worth note.

Great shots, James!!

I was really tempted to leave work and join you!!  It was beautiful weather yesterday.  I'm thinking of heading down there today to see if I can catch Palin's jet. I have a few hours before the affair I'm going to tonight!!

Look people, I don't give a sh*t about who you support, don't support or could give a rat's ass about. Each of you know that politics has no place in these forums and just because I posted a shot of a North American Airlines 752, which happens to be currently leased to Obama's campaign doesn't mean I want your personal take about the election. Thank you for the neutral comments, TRD, Cory and Jared.

Dang... a bit over sensitive are we? Its all in good fun. Anyways, you say politics has no place in these forums.... so why post a picture of a plane that has politics written all over it?

Crap man, I'm joking, this isn't the time or place (or world) to debate that issue.

Also, my worst flight experience was with North American Airlines  >:(

Because as a spotter, I enjoy catching planes that are rare, good looking or attract an overall interest to the people who look at them when I post them. The fact that I posted the shot has nothing to do with politics. I posted it because it was a new catch for me and thought perhaps someone would enjoy it with me.

Crap man, I'm joking


So then you can stand to look at it?

Over reaction much?


Mind explaining how I over-reacted? I used bold and italics to express my point. And one swear word.

Christ, people. Enjoy the shot for what it is.

Great shots James......:)

I'm with James on that issue......the politics shouldn't be brought up on the forums and James was not the one to bring it up......personal opinions should be kept personal. IMO this is a very interesting plane as it's different to the norm and deserves to be put on the forums :)

I still disagree because politics are politics no matter what way you look at it. I see a plane that says "Obama", "change", etc... and rarities aside, its still a political instrument. I can honestly care less for either candidate.... I just see posting the shot as a contradiction to you saying, and I quote, "Each of you know that politics has no place in these forums..."

As already said... rarities aside, its still politics.
