Just to follow on from Bjorn's thread.

Southwestern's New Mexico livery 737. Albuquerque-San Francisco. A spectacular flight taking in some beautiful scenery.

Taxiing out to the active.

Passing over the fringes of the Grand Canyon.

The Hoover dam.

The Sierra Nevada.

Sunset as we approach the coast.

On finals to KSFO 27L

Touchdown .... not on the centreline .... but down.

A beautiful flight.

As a quick side note has anyone noticed that the glideslope for KSFO 27L is kind of strange I was brought in at 1800ft ... as the aircraft connected with the ILS it climbed about 300ft and then dived at the runway then leveled out at about 150ft ... it made for a rather tricky landing. Everything was set up as per the 737 operating instructions.

Anyway ... enjoy
