Well, Josef, great shot. Tells us again, it's not good enough to just be there, it sure helps if you're able to take a pic like yours here in the scarce amount of time you have! Congrats!

To the User from France who commented on the cleanliness of the a/c: Dirty might not quite be the operative word, but F-GISA sure looks like she wetted her pants recently......
