10+ years ago this Boeing 247 in United Airlines livery landed at our airport here in Nevada. Was able to get a few shots including this one. Wonder if Biomed has seen this one. It was headed to his area.
The 1933 Boeing made its last flight to the Museum of Flight to be put on permanent static display.

Hi Brian,
I notice that many (though not all) of your action photos (such as the two below) cut off one or both wing tips. Is that unintentional (due to your own plane's distance from the subject plane, combined with the length of lens you had mounted) or an intentional decision of composition/cropping? If the latter, what is the intent of that, or the compositional benefit as compared to including the whole wings? This is only curiosity, not a dig at your composition. (I'm trying to figure out whether I find these shots fabulous because you've clipped the wing tips, or despite it.
) I never have photographed one plane from another, as you clearly have many times, and I likely never will, so I have no familiarity at all with this sort of work.

Desperate but not serious
For the first time in sixty years, Doc has moved under its own power. Another step closer to flight.
