A Return to Normalcy

 The COVID-19 pandemic has been pretty rough.  Because of it, the airlines had to furlough many workers and send many of their planes to the desert for long term storage.  One of the plane types that was heavily hit was the 757.  Any of my regular readers can you tell you, that is my favorite plane.  Anyway, many of the routes that used to use the 757 were using other planes.  I found out that Delta was returning many 757s to regular service.  I'm not sure if this was the first day but it was the first day I could catch them.

First up was an A321 coming in from Phoenix.

It was followed by a CRJ-900 from Kansas City.

A CRJ-900 from O'Hare Airport in Chicago.

This 737 belongs to Swift Air (they are in the process of rebranding their airline) and it was coming in from Nashville, I think.

This 757 was coming in from Seattle.  This route was being serviced by a 737 for a while.  It is nice to see more 757s in service.

Another angle.

Probably my favorite angle.

I liked the light on this CRJ coming in from Fort Wayne.

And this 757 was coming in from Los Angeles.

Another angle.

 And one more.

Flying Swiftly...Or Something

So I went to the airport tonight.  I was hoping to catch my 787 pair again but I found out that the Air France flight was cancelled.  I think they are still under strike or something.  I also found it was cancelled tomorrow to.  Oh well, I got the Royal Jordanian 787 and that's pretty good to me.

 First up is a 737 belonging to Swift Air.  This particular bird was arriving from Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic.  Swift Air is a charter/business jet airline.

 An A319 belonging to United Airlines flying in from San Francisco.  I need to go planewatching there at some point.  I've seen pictures and it looks like there is pretty nice spot that is publicly accessible.

 It always makes my night when I see a Mad Dog.  This particular one is an MD-88 arriving from Windsor Locks.  I still think they need to put the funny mustache on the nose.

 It's always nice to see other colored aircraft in a see of white.  This particular Spirit Airlines A320 was arriving from Atlanta.

 Under normal circumstances, I would love the CRJ, but I see too many of them.  This CRJ900 was arriving from White Plains, NY.

 It was followed by a CRJ-900 from Portland, ME.

 An MD-83 arriving from Dallas.

 Another Spirit A320 from LaGuardia.

 It wasn't too long before the 787 appeared.

 As always, this was coming from Amman, Jordan with a stop in Montreal.

 I love this plane.

 They call this one the Trash Panda because of the lining around its cockpit window.  While that name is less than flattering, I think this is a nice looking plane.

 Another Mad Dog.  This one an MD-90 coming in from Atlanta.

 Next up was a Southwest 737 flying in from Atlanta.

 Another plane that I like to catch is the MD-11 from Memphis, TN.

 A CRJ from Erie.

 The A330 arriving from Amsterdam.

 A CRJ from Columbus, OH.

 And of course, my favorite is the 757.

 This one was arriving from Orlando.

 A CRJ-700 from Indianapolis.

 This 737 was coming from Phoenix.

 A CRJ from Milwaukee.  It seems like this flight is normally an MD type plane.  I hope this isn't foretelling the future.

 Another CRJ.  This one was arriving from Midway.

And I ended the night with a 757 from Fort Myers.
