3rd Pic...
I suspect that Half Moon Bay (KHAF), and the Pacific Ocean , is just over the hill in the background.

I love comparing the various photos to my FS 2004 'Frisco tours...!

(Its amazing how accurate FS 2004 is!).

Wrong direction Paul, these are all facing East, what you are seeing back there is Alameda and Hayward.

Livermore (KLVK) over the hill.




Also Dublin, and Camp Parks, where the Mythbusters had their cannon ball incident.   ;D

#3 IS AWESOME MAN!!! I love how you can compare Airbus to Boeing! (BTW, I think the NGX is very accurate to the Real 737, look below)

The Delta 737 wound up going around, the Singapore Triple 7 was crossing the runway to taxi for take off, seen in my KSFO ducks picture.
