NAS JRB Fort Worth / KAFW / KFTW 9.23.13

Posted onSeptember 23, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley1 Comment

Very neat day today.  Just after lunch caught the Aramco (Saudi Arabia Oil Company) B762 departing from Meacham Field. Ran over to NAS JRB Fort Worth and caught the Maiden Voyage of AF115026 F-35A from Lockheed. Headed back north and lucked into “Fifi” with Phil’s help. “Fifi” is the world’s only flying B-29. Great day!

NAS JRB Fort Worth 9.21.13

Posted onSeptember 22, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley4 Comments

Great day out at NAS JRB Fort Worth on Saturday afternoon. Always a good day when you catch a primer green 35. And I am sucker for after burner shots so just disregard if you get tired of seeing them! Had a great time out there Saturday with Dave, Sung and Seb. Hopefully this week Read More …

Alliance 9.21.13 – Digital Camo Cobra

Posted onSeptember 22, 2013September 22, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley2 Comments

Saturday was a beautiful day! Started the morning off with the family and a few friends in Southlake for the Walk for PKD event in the Town Square. One of my 9 year old boy’s best friends has PKD. She’s only 8 and has a heart of gold. Got a lucky shot of Asiana Cargo Read More …

NAS JRB Fort Worth 9.19.13

Posted onSeptember 19, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley7 Comments

What a day! Was hopeful for a F35 or Gypsy Viper to fly but due to the weather they both cancelled out this morning. I did hear that F-35 EG5018 was delivered today to Eglin but I was taking care of my “real” job. Today turned out to be one of the better experiences I’ve Read More …

DFW Surprise visitor today 9.19.13

Posted onSeptember 19, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley4 Comments

  Thanks to a DFW Spotters member who works out @ DFW Airport and Phil Plank, I got word that the Lufthansa A380 from Frankfurt had diverted from Houston due to weather. I quickly headed that way as DFW never sees A380’s. I snaked around a few street and was able to get up and close. Phil Read More …

Tulsa & Tinker AFB 9.18.13

Posted onSeptember 18, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley5 Comments

Made a last minute trip up to Tulsa today. Left early and met up with Kemper in OKC and we headed straight on up to Tulsa International with hopes for the color bird. Things weren’t looking too good until about 1:15 when a couple canopies went up and the bags came off. We kept our Read More …

Antonov AH-124-100 Departing Alliance 9.15.13

Posted onSeptember 17, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley1 Comment

Since the Antonov was about the only thing interesting flying around here this weekend I figured I’d post a few pics of her departure Sunday morning. After being scheduled to leave at 2:30am, 4:30am and 9:00am, she finally took off at 9:18am Sunday morning.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that she hadn’t left yet Read More …

NASJRB Fort Worth 9.16.13

Posted onSeptember 16, 2013September 16, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley4 Comments

Somewhat of a bummer day at NASJRB. Lockheed couldn’t even manage to get the Cat Bird off the ground due to radar problems much less anything else of interest. One small glimmer of hope was a MAKO F16 that stopped in for fuel. Beyond that and the SPADS flying it was dead. “Buster” in the Read More …

NAS JRB Fort Worth / Alliance 9.13.13

Posted onSeptember 13, 2013September 13, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley2 Comments

Only had a little bit of spotting time today but caught a few neat birds. Around 9:50 “lightning 1” got clearance to Edwards AFB. About 15 minutes later he back taxied runway 17 and was cleared for takeoff. It was so hazy this morning and overcast that until he was airborne I couldn’t make out what Read More …

Alliance / NAS JRB Fort Worth / Arlington Muni 9.11.13

Posted onSeptember 11, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley1 Comment

The “real” job limited my plane chasing today but I still managed to catch a few decent shots. The morning started over at Alliance where a slew of T-38’s were having a parade. The only ones I shot were the ones that stayed in formation only because Mr. Kemper said he wanted to see some! Read More …

NAS JRB Fort Worth 9.10.13

Posted onSeptember 10, 2013September 10, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley4 Comments

Well, another pretty good day at NAS JRB. I managed to time it out pretty good today and caught both of the birds Lockheed put up before I headed back north around 3:30. The Gypsy Viper ( JJ12 – 9762) was making its own weather on a few passes today which was a pleasant site to Read More …

NAS JRB Fort Worth 9.9.13

Posted onSeptember 9, 2013September 10, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley5 Comments

Man its good to be back chasing these birds! Decent day at NAS JRB Fort Worth. Spent the morning on the east side and was happy hear “Rocket 11” and “Strike 21” chatter around 10:30. Even with start up and taxi it has only been about a 50/50 shot that they would fly here lately. Read More …

Alliance 8.22.13

Posted onAugust 22, 2013August 22, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley3 Comments

Nice day out at Alliance. Met up early with my buddy from OKC to do our best to catch some SPADS.  He’s been my insight to Tinker, Fort Smith and even Tulsa here lately.  Day started off very well. SPADS departed on regularly schedule 11:10 t.o. time and returned a little after noon time. Got Read More …

VMA-542 AV8 Harriers departure from Alliance… and a DC9

Posted onAugust 17, 2013August 18, 2013AuthorSteve Gurley3 Comments

Great day at Alliance even if the additional 4 Harriers didn’t make it in! Spent the early morning out catching a few shots of the AV8’s with the Sunrise glow on them. Then spent some of the afternoon out with Phil and Dave snapping a few more over the fence with the help of Phil’s Read More …

Got a heads up of a few AV8 Harriers @ Alliance late this afternoon. Word is 4 more coming in tomorrow. These 3 didn’t know if they would be leaving tonight or early tomorrow. As I was leaving, Caught the NASA Dryden Research DC8 overhead on low approach to Alliance. Phil informed me that the Read More …
