Very nice shot!

On first look I thought it was a P-3 stretched with turboprops and different landing gear. Did a little research and found out that is not true. The older styles of planes had more grace to them for some reason.

Cool shot. That plane fly's in and out of the airport by our house (Oakland County Interantional).

Great catch of a rare bird! Looks like they only have about 9 of those in their fleet.

Good catch. Looks like you found a good perch there.
