Prior to this aircrafts arrival, Mr. John Travolta flew in with his 707 fittingly painted up in Qantas' older livery, while Qantas sent in Wanula Dreaming for the first day of service. If you look hard enough under the fuse of the 747, you'll see Travolta's aircraft in the background. The celebration was fun, and I wish Qantas the best in SFO! |

After 60 years, on this day the US Air Force returned their land to FRAPORT in a big ceremony. This is the last regular C-17, receiving a water cannon salute. Parked at the military apron are all USAF aircraft which recently flew into FRA: Hercules, Starlifter, Galaxy, KC10, B707, and Globemaster. The Lufthansa 747 is the first German airliner to be parked on the military apron. Farewell US Troops, you made that airport special. C-17 captains words: "Thanks for 60 years of very good work, Globemaster C-17 is now out." |

Here you can see the water canon salute as the merged airlines' new scheme rolls onto the ramp in Phoenix at the America West hangar. This aircraft brings a full cabin filled with all crew in different uniforms and the CEO's of both America West and US Airways! I must say, after seeing it in person at up close, I really do like the new scheme! |
