Remark Photographer
For sure one of the most beautiful airport in the world. Check in the threshold of RWY 20R a Boeing 737 blasts water as full power is applied. In the oposite threshold my friend and spotter Bernardo Andrade was taking some pictures. [Canon EOS 30D - Brenda]

This has to be the most amazing aerial view of the Rio de Janeiro International airport I have ever seen anywhere in the web! It takes the #1 spot hands down!! I will certainly add it as wallpaper in my PC screen today. What a shot!!

For the folks commenting about the island in the lower-right side of the picture, that's the Villegagnon Island, seat of the Brazilian Navy Academy. Surely a place drenched in history!

The photo is clear and crisp, and the multitude of colors and how they play off one another captures the full flavour of this air field. The liner powering up adds a dramatic sense as well.
