Remark Photographer
PH-KCI / CI-009 (cn 48563/593) Enjoying a nice flight on board of this aparently freshly overhauled MD-11, a look out of the window made me at first a little frightened - then impressed, when I watched this Boeing 747-400 of Japan Air Lines passing by above. It happened somewhere near the US-Canadian border.
