@eastcoast78 - You're right about that. I was really pleased it decided to use 34.

I'm actually not airside. There's some sort of walking trail that runs parallel to 34 outside the fence with a hill from where I took this. I only discovered it that summer. Raises you right up and lets you look clearly over the fence. The vantage point is fantastic. As good as it is though, I sure wish I worked at the airport, that'd be even better.

Heh, I run FS9. Haven't flown virtually in months actually.

They would have had to wait 21 hours to give the crew their minimum rest as this was probably the 3rd part of a 6 day rotation. They cross the atlantic 4 times in 6 days.

Why did they wait twenty-one hours to finish the flight? I would have loved to see St.John's for a day!
