Well my little adventure at Hawwaii's Hilo Airport has come to an end. I did manage to shoot a few photos of this beauty landing just before dark last night.
It was Hawaain Air's Boeing 777!

Here she is turnig to intercept the localizer.
Image


Floating gracefully down the glidescope, her gear is extended.
Image


Flaps are extended and all is looking good as the sun dips behind the mountains.
Image


The big jet slowly sinks to earth.
Image


The triple seven thunders over me as I await her arrival.
Image


A puff of smoke from the huge wheel assemblies confirms a perfect landing.
Image


About to shut it's engines down after a long trip home.

Thanks for watching!!

Very nice!  Why is it dusk shots always look so real while daytime shots don't?  ???
