This pic taken at ATL 10/21/07 this plane was to be used for fighting fires and now it's been converted again to haul cargo for the past 2 years.

Hi Frank;

Another GREAT capture!

Jeez; that would have looked damned impressive - dropping a belly-load of water - if it had gone ahead...

Cheers;

Frank, where do you go @ ATL to get these? Have you had any problems w/ law enforcement coming up to you shooting these?

Hey Harry I go to 6 different places outside of the AP 3 spots on the West side and 3 spots on the East side. All the spots i go to outside of the airport are about half a mile from the end of the runway. On the inside of the airport I go to the upper parking deck one faces South and the other end faces North. I've never had any problems with the Law I always carry many photos I've taken at Atl and Airshows that I've been to since the early 80s.
