zeroG_727_n794aj_fll_dec09b.jpgThe interior of Zero G 727 is mostly made up of leather padding. Synthetic padding is not used as per FAA in case of onboard fire. Zero G is a neat 727 that takes you up to 32,000 feet and then does dives and climbs which simulates weightlesness. NASA sends their people on flights and I'm told that civilians can also go, the cost is $3,000 per person (not sure how long the flight is) Jan 02, 2010

peternygard727-100.jpgBy far the nicest color scheme I've ever seen on a 727. Making it even more special is that it's a 727-100, which is a shorter variant of the 727-200. This 727 additionally sports winglets and a Super 727 conversion, which is a huge engine upgrade (the engines look like MD80 engines, which are much bigger than typical 727 engines), in addition to the beautiful BOEING sign in the backgroundNov 25, 2009

AFRIQUIYAH_A300_JFK_0909Bjoe.jpgAfriqiah A300 departs JFK for Tripoli with some of Gadafi's entourage on board (he left on an A340 previous to this departure). The marking on the airplane says "A300-600" but those of you who know your airplanes need to inspect the wing tips and then you may have a question to ask (as in A300-600R)Sep 27, 2009

a340_EMB145_0909b.jpgTiming is everything! Lufthansa A340 flies over an Embraer 145. Some may see this and be shocked that this goes on but rest assured, this is completely normal and both aircraft are TCAS equipped (Terminal Collision Avoidance System). TCAS is a screen in the cockpit that shows other airplanes that are within the subject aircraft's airspace. The TCAS picks up other airplanes via their transponder which every airliner has on board. In addition to TCAS, ATC is also monitoring traffic, which is especially heavy over central EuropeSep 12, 2009

bentleyhamann.jpgOne neat thing about having your own web site is that you can upload whatever you'd like that you think will appeal to your audience, including photos of cars that I see at airports around the world. This Stunning Bentley Hamann is strapped down to a pallet to be shipped to Hong Kong for a buyer willing to pay above $200,000 for the car. Hamann is a German perforance package add-on for high-end cars. If it was my car, I would have chosen black on black..Sep 12, 2009

vgair330OO-SFQ802.jpgView in the cockpit of A330-200 at Flight level 410 (41,000 feet), having recently departed JFK's runway 13R, routing JFK-BRU. Leaving the USA in the evening and watching the sun set behind you is easy on the eyes, however, when the sun comes up again somewhere over the Atlantic it starts to get pretty uncomfortable in the cockpit, sun visors are a must.Sep 03, 2009
