Wacky Newark arrival

Postby flyboy 28 » Mon Sep 18, 2006 4:26 pm

I went to the football game at the Meadowlands yesterday and in the parking lot I took this pic of a Polish Air Force Tu-154 on approach to Newark. Weird, isn't it? ???

I took a bunch more plane and football pics which will get posted a bit later, but can anyone shed some light on this one?

 Many, many world leaders were in New York this week, including the Iranian presicdent Mocmude Amadeneijad (i probebly mis-spelled that) and Huego Shaves (the presedent of Venuzuela).  Amadenejad called the US " The great saten"  and Shavez said the Bush was lusifer, did one of those, cross thingys on his chest, and said he could still smell the sulfur from when Bush spoke the day before.   Nice people. ;)
