Post anything United Airlines!

My first "half-decent" landing shot - with my new old Nikon Lens!

Canon Rebel XT, Nikon AF-D 70-300 ED at about 100 (160 equiv.), F4.5, 1/2500, ISO100, Fotodiox Nikon-F to EOS Adapter

Really like the Nikon ED glass - sort of a "budget Canon L" ;)

I'll put in my $.02 worth. A couple of UAL shots I've taken within the past few days and a last year. The B-777 is from a few days ago. He's at FL360 over Scotland heading to GOMUP intersection to join the NAT Tracks. The B-767-300ER was from last year. He was 1000-2000 ft above (Don't remember the exact info. Sorry). Enjoy. The B-777 shot was taken with the Canon 1D4 + 100-400 mm lens. The B-763 was taken with the 5D2.

I'm with you, Jay. My first 757 ride shoved me so hard into the seat, I found myself hoping every trip put me on one. Great accelerator! It was at DIA. He gave it about half and I was impressed, thought we were well on our way. When he hit the firewall, I got slammed!
