Wonderful, dramatic picture.
Had an uncle who was a crash investigator with Pratt & Whitney, the jet engine
manufacturer. He maintained the 747 was probably the best passenger aircraft
ever made. He used to say it could fly itself, it was so flight crew friendly.

Hi Howard
This is history indeed as the Boing 747 is no longer in use, at least in
France, too expensive in kerosen.
But for me it remains the airplane, the big one that carried all my family when
I was a kid, back to Europe or back to our home, Africa.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Flexers,
Talking about manipulating airplanes here is an un-manipulated image taken in
Kowloon in 1998 as Kai Tak Airport was closing down.
<http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/KaiTak1998/KaiTakApproachw.jpg.html>
It was taken on film - and could be improved, I think, by moving the plane to
the centreof the buildings but I never did that. Didn�t own photoshop when I
made the image.
CheersHoward

Greetings from a long-time list lurker:
Per David Young's request, here's a photo:

A rare double gull-wing Phillips 66 gas station in Rawlins, Wyoming. Most
Phillips 66 stations built in the 1960s had only one gull wing.
