This are my pics from the flights……..
LAS – EWR = Continental B757-200
EWR – BHX = Continental B757-200
Some of my favourite pics…!, anyway here they are and enjoy 😀 🙂 😀
1. This is just after we taxiied back from gate A-19, we are taxxiing to RWY 19L and the Vegas Strip gave a good background for this pic! 😀
2. Turning onto RWY 19L for departure, in the background are a ATA B752 and a Hawaiin Air B767.
3. After take-off from RWY 19L, i managed to get a sort of overview of McCarren.
4. I LOVE 😀 this pic as we were climbing we flew over the Grand Canyon, we went there on the ground and now we get to fly over it!!!! 😀
5. After a five hour flight we are approaching RWY 22L at EWR
6. After a fast appraoch we land with reverse thrust and spoliers in full effect!
7. On taxi to the gate we passed a number of International Carriers including this Air India B744
8. Air France A340
9. Alitalia B763
10. And this is probably my FAVOURITE pic, the B752 flightdeck after the flight from LAS, i would like to thank the very kind crew and pilots 🙂
I also had to make this pic alot smaller than i would of liked because of the size limit, 😡 if it gets accepted to jetphotos,net i will put the bigger version of it on here
Sorry if the pics are in the wrong order and if so the descriptions won’t match the pic……….

WOW! I love those shots! Well done they’re amazing and thanks very much for sharing them with us! I bet you were pleased to go in the cockpit especially in America! You were lucky!
Thanks a lot BY767 😀 😀 😀
Its always a pleasure to share my photos on this forum because there is always such kind feedback………i was very pleased to get in the cockpit, the Flighdeck crew were very friendly and welcoming, i did think i was lucky but sort of was expecting a Yes answer but it would of been a real downer if it was a ‘No’

Fantastic photos as ever Future, as Michael said in another thread, we have been spoilt with great photos on here today. Great to get a picture of your flight as well!

Thanks Sandy! 😀
Yes i do rate the CO cabins, i thought they were very comfy and with a free blanket, cushion and headphones (which normally cost $5) it was nice, i dont rate the Continental Airwaves, the B752s are missing some radio stations that the B777 and B767s have, if you have a good movie or too which we did including Starsky & Hutch and some others which were good which keep you entertained, flight crew were very friendly and give good service and food.
Thanks Micheal, the night time shots are good but i was getting bored after that was took after the delaay! 😀
PS – If some dial-up users had a little touble loading the last few pics like me, just refresh the page or reload it and it will bring back the loaded pics staright away and continue to load the rest> 🙂

Only 8 more…………..
11. This is me in the CO B752 flightdeck after the flight from LAS, i would like to thank the pilot who actually offered to take the photo of me!!! 😀 😀 😀
12. I was surprised to see this Antononov-124 which was on the far apron, my first view of this large aircraft!
13. This was our aircraft home, CO26 at gate C128 just before boarding, the ground is so wet because it was chucking it down about half-hour ago because of a thunderstorm which covered the area and cause our aircraft to divert to Washington, we were delayed for 3 hours!
14. These were the friendly pilots of CO26 getting ready for departure.
15. This is a not very good view of the CO26 cabin viewed from seat 31F, a nice cabin i thought!
16. This is when we were somewhere over the Atlantic and the sun was rising giving a beutiful picture, most of the cabin was asleep.
17. This is us on final approach for RWY 15 at BHX arriving a few hours late..
18. Finally this is us slowing down on RWY 15 after a long flight……
This picture shows us arriving at BHX from the spotters view…..
