More Planes at Orchard Field...Part II

I stayed at Schiller Park for a couple of hours.  It was amazing the number and variety of planes that I saw.

 Next up was the very distinctive Norwegian 787.

 I think Norwegian is actually a British carrier.

 But they have very distinctive planes.

 This one was arriving from Barcelona.

 A United 737 from Orlando.

 A United A319 from Raleigh-Durham.

 An A321 and 737 belonging to American Airlines.

 I'm not sure where this one came from.

 This is a Delta A320 and I think it was arriving from Salt Lake City.

 I think this 737 was arriving from Mexico City.

 A side shot of it.

 An American A321 coming in from Miami.

 This A319 was arriving from Yosemite.

 I'm not sure where this one was coming from.

 A United 737 arriving from Costa Rica.

 An American 787 from Dallas.

 I think this may have been a repositioning flight.

 This United 737 was flying in from Austin.

 The LOT 787 has a special place in my heart.  It was the first 787 I saw in person.  In fact, it was probably this flight.

 An E175 from Arkansas.

 Another from Buffalo.

 An A321 belonging to Spirit Airlines coming in from Orlando.

 A United A320 from Fort Myers.

 This is one of the planes I was waiting to catch.

 I don't particularly like the looks of the A380 but I will admit that it is an impressive aircraft.

 And the sunset made for some pretty cool clouds.

 Especially in this shot.

 This particular plane was arriving from London.

 A 757 belonging to Icelandair coming in from Keflavik.

 This 737 was arriving from Los Cabos.

 And this one was coming in from Santa Ana or John Wayne Airport.

 A United 757.

 Another plane that I was waiting for.

 A 747-8 belonging to Lufthansa.

 This one was coming in from Frankfurt.

 One more shot.

And I ended the night with a 737 from Cancun.

My Day at O'Hare Airport - Part V

The sun was getting in an unfavorable position and I was kind of waffling about wanting to catch the A380 but I decided to move to a different place.  This was sort of the place where I started and it meant that the sun would sort of be in my favor.

 First up was an American 737.

 It was followed by a Delta 737.  This particular one was arriving from Seattle.

An American 787.  I think this was from a European destination.

 An American A320.

 Another Virgin American A320.

 What's better than catching one Aer Lingus plane?  Catching two of them.

 An SAS A340.  I think this one was coming in from Copenhagen.

 Another United 737.

 A Fed Ex MD-11.

 An A320.

 An Asiana Airlines 777.

 Another United 757.  I was happy to see these guys.  I love the 757 and I really love the 757-300.

 Another American 737.

 An Embrear 175.

 An American 787.

 A Norwegian Air 787.  This particular one has Montgolfier on the tail.  He is one of the inventors of the hot air balloon.

 Another American 737.

 I was happy to catch an IcelandAir 757.  I kind of wish I could have caught the Aurora one.

 Another SAS plane.  This one was an A330.

 A Lufthansa A350.

 Another United 757.

 I would like to catch some planes taking off from here.

 Another United 737.

 A Fed Ex MD-10.

 I like this livery.

 the plane I was waiting for, the British Airways A380.

 The side shot.

 I kind of wish I could have caught an engine in this shot but I like it well enough.

 A Spirit A320.

 A Spirit A321.

 It was a 757 fest for me, it seems.

And I stuck around to catch the other Lufthansa 747.
