Our suite in Miami faced the airport so I took a few pics. While I was doing it, I remembered the now increaesed security and was expecting men in dark suits and sunglasses to come bursting in. Fortunately that didn't happen.

    The same's happened to me as well. Big advantage of digital: "Here officer, let me show you" has gotten me out of a few conversations.

    Looks like a slight crosswind on the last one...

    Cool shots. I love planes (Being in the Air Force means I get to play with them too) but even our own rules since a certain refugee incident (children overboard saga for the Aussies here) prohibit us from taking unauthorised shots and it's a real bummer :(
