 A visitor from - posted Mon December 31, 2012:Fantastic shot! Sadly, VS does not fly to SFO! Montague Virgin Atlantic Airways | |
 A visitor from Australia posted Sat August 11, 2012:The Qantas has an almost 'smug' look on its face! Beautiful shot of the most beautiful bird in the skies. | |
 A visitor from United States posted Sat June 2, 2012:You don't often see two planes in this proximity in flight. Great! | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun April 1, 2012: Very impressive!!! | |
| A visitor from - posted Sat March 31, 2012: Simply Sensational!!! On final, full flaps, no-go, full power climb for a go-round AIR-TO-AIR: WOW! | |
| A visitor from - posted Sat February 18, 2012: "Gloriously soaring above you... BECAUSE I CAN." | |
| A visitor from United States posted Wed February 15, 2012: Back in my flying days with Northwest, I had to go around at SFO once. This is an exceptional (great) photo Ben... Capt. Dan Northwest Airlines (Retired) | |
| A visitor from - posted Fri January 27, 2012: Niceeeeee | |
 A visitor from France posted Wed December 28, 2011:This shot is excellent actually. i'm wondering if such a position between the two planes is allowed... anyway tcas should be disabled ;) congrats for the shot anyway | |
 A visitor from United Kingdom posted Mon December 26, 2011:Stunning | |
| A visitor from - posted Mon December 26, 2011: Great action pic, and excellent details given by the photographer. The photographer included the winglet, plainly showing it to be Virgin America, and included the Qantas 747. | |
| A visitor from - posted Mon December 19, 2011: Go arounds are fairly routine but a chore after a long flight from Sydney. TCAS algorithm won't say anything until aircraft paths encroach, you could fly formation as long as no turns are made into each other. Do it all the time on parallel runways like SFO | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun December 11, 2011: Just breathtaking | |
| A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat November 26, 2011: Well done Ben, you've captured this rare and tricky-to-photograph event very well. | |

| A visitor from - posted Sat October 22, 2011: Ure a lucky guy. rare opportunity | |
 A visitor from Canada posted Sat October 8, 2011:I think this shot..is comparable to man first stepping on the moon. | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun October 2, 2011: This is without a doubt one of the absolute best pictures on this site! However, I'd be worried if I was on either plane here- I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to fly this close. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Fri September 30, 2011: This is a one in a million shot... nice job!! | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun September 4, 2011: Simply awesome! at first i thought it was a Photoshop special, but reading 2 comments from the pilot of the 319 and a pax on the 744, i can only say well done on a simply awesome photo! | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun August 14, 2011: Great photography is a bit like great comedy - it's all in the timing. This is phenomenal. | |

 A visitor from Austria posted Wed January 19, 2011:> Why couldn't the 'roo just put the 319 in its pouch and then it wouldn't have to go around? hahaha :) AWESOME picture & for sure a "once in a lifetime" moment - congratulations! | |
| A visitor from Australia posted Mon November 29, 2010: Your seat on the A319, the timing of your flight and your attention to other traffic is phenomenal. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Wed October 6, 2010: The ability to seize the moment with a clarity that captures the drama of the flyby is what separates this from all the rest. | |
| A visitor from - posted Sun September 12, 2010: Fantastic and scary !!!! | |
| A visitor from Australia posted Wed September 8, 2010: Great get, shame about the glare of Skippy.. | |
 A visitor from Jordan posted Wed August 4, 2010:Surely hope they did not do "Flaps down, Power up" :). Amazing picture, reminds me of the time when I was a student pilot and had to get out of the way of a 777 coming. Was already pushing my approach speed at 120 kts, but they told me g/a. | |
 A visitor from Puerto Rico posted Wed July 21, 2010:For a second I thought the 744 was flaring for landing :X. Ni e to see some one caring about go-arounds -_- | |
| A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri July 2, 2010: Great catch! TCAS wouldn't be going crazy though, they have it set to TA (traffic advisory) only during approach for reasons very effectively illustrated by this great photo :) | |
| A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri June 25, 2010: Amazing i wish i had a photo like that | |

| A visitor from - posted Fri March 19, 2010: Fantastic I was onboard the Qantats 747 great flight and a go round at the end even after a 13hur was fantastic that surge of power and the moment of O MY GOD before the calm voice of the 2nd officer telling us there was another aircraft i our way and we were doing a go round and add is a lovely clear day and a great day for seeing enjoy and sorry about the delay to our arrival . | |

| A visitor from - posted Sun September 6, 2009: Shot of a lifetime!!Congrats!! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Wed September 2, 2009: Why couldn't the 'roo just put the 319 in its pouch and then it wouldn't have to go around? | |
| A visitor from - posted Wed August 12, 2009: Probably the last 3 letters of the registration of the 747 had to deal with this situation. | |
| A visitor from Jordan posted Fri August 7, 2009: Am Sure the TCAS is crying ! | |
| A visitor from Israel posted Fri July 17, 2009: Amazing shot Ben :) | |

| A visitor from Argentina posted Sun May 24, 2009: The QF747 is climbing, hence the difference in the attack angle between the A319. Fantastic capture! Frank frm BUE E01 | |

| A visitor from United States posted Wed March 11, 2009: I have had the opportunity to witness a 767 or 757 next to my plane when flying back into SFO and it was amazing, just not as amazing as this though! | |
 A visitor from Dominican Republic posted Mon January 19, 2009:This really is one in a million photo.. | |

| A visitor from United States posted Mon January 21, 2008: There are quite a few extremely awesome one-in-a-million shots on A.net. However, this is one of those one-in-a-billion shots. 5 stars and thanks for sharing this one. | |
| A visitor from Netherlands posted Thu January 10, 2008: Indeed, an amazing moment. Looking out of the window and seeing this giant flying next to you. Thrilling. Great picture, Ben. Thanks for sharing it with us. It every time gives me the idea I'm sitting in the A319 myself. | |
| A visitor from Germany posted Wed January 9, 2008: This picture is one of the best at airliners.net | |
| A visitor from United States posted Wed January 2, 2008: I was the F/O on the 319, we were on an approx 3 mile final, we at 125kts fully configured to land, qantas at approximately 140kts, I guess, fully configured. Qantas instructed to stay in trail as per required for a visual paired approach to SFO 28L and 28R, but eventually called to ATC unable. We offered to speed up but at that point Qantas called going around. He climbed away to 3000ft uneventfully, the picture must have been taken just at the point he started the pitch up. Spectacular as he was nearly level with us at the point of go around initiation. Shame some people think this is a fake picture. Actually go arounds on a paired approach are unusual, the spacing and speed differential just didn't work out this time. Great shot though. | |
 A visitor from Czech Republic posted Tue December 25, 2007:Simply too close for its size :),great capture! | |

| A visitor from Netherlands posted Tue November 27, 2007: Heavy! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Tue November 27, 2007: Great Shot...all in a days work for ATC. Again, awesome shot! | |

| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Awesome! I wish I was there! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Absolutely amazing. I have never experienced such a sight on any of my flights. I would be the first to take pictures, my parents would be scared to death however. | |
| A visitor from - posted Mon November 26, 2007: Wow!!! What timing! | |
| A visitor from Canada posted Mon November 26, 2007: That's a great photo. If you just had the Qantas airliner in there it would be great with the clouds etc. but having the perspective of the aircraft you're in is fantastic. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: WOW! This is a very rare moment, and that is why it is important to always have your camera handy. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Beautiful picture!! Reminds me of the time when we, in a Delta L-1011 approaching Orlando (1979) flew beside, then turned in front of, an Air Force C-130. The C-130 seem motionless in the sky (except for the propellers). Your picture brings back wonderful memories. | |

| A visitor from Canada posted Mon November 26, 2007: Well, personally I wouldn't qualify for sharper or colors, exposure or any photography concept, this is a "one in 10 millions" shot, right sit, on right flight, on right time. I hope to see one shot from the other plane soon as well :). Excellent job Ben. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Thats an amazing shot with the wing of the plane you are in and how the other plane just seems so magnificent, I love it :) | |
| A visitor from Australia posted Mon November 26, 2007: A very unique photo, Never seen anything like this before | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Very cool pic taken at the perfect moment. Seeing a 747 come that close to you must have been freaky as it is not an everyday occurrence. - in LA | |
| A visitor from Australia posted Mon November 26, 2007: Fantastic photo. Can't wait to see a photo of your A319 taken from Qantas' Boeing 747. | |
 A visitor from Viet Nam posted Mon November 26, 2007:Stunning shot ! 5 stars | |
| A visitor from Spain posted Mon November 26, 2007: Five stars definitively! You gotta have to be there to feel it! Never seen something similar before. | |
| A visitor from Canada posted Mon November 26, 2007: Very interesting... I've done the same approach from inside a 744, with 752 on the other side... we couldn't slow down enough, and overtook on a 1 mile final, but neither of us were instructed to go around. Photos are on airliners. Cheers, Matt Lee | |

| A visitor from - posted Mon November 26, 2007: I can see that someone didn't have their portable electronics stored during landing! | |
| A visitor from - posted Mon November 26, 2007: Whats the worst that can happen if the 747 gets in front? The airbus will just get tossed around, no biggie! ;) 5* | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Nice picture considering how bright it is outside! I can just imagine what it looked like from inside the A319! | |
| A visitor from Netherlands posted Mon November 26, 2007: What a unique sighting! Truely amazing! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Mon November 26, 2007: Very unique shot of an event most of us never see... good job, and definitely a bit of luck! | |
