Gallery Update: Spotting from Reno to Portland

As you may have read from yesterday's blog post, my flight got delayed for nearly two hours. Expect the unexpected right? Well, I took yesterday's flight delay as an opportunity and took some photos of the airplanes that were visible at Reno-Tahoe International Airport; planespotting from the terminal! And then, it all went on from there...

Also updated is my commercial air travel aerial photos. In addition to that, I created a new air-to-air album because we actually saw some air traffic flying around us.

And finally, as we arrived in Portland, I took some photos from my flight as we taxiied to the terminal:

Preview:

FedEx Express Airbus A300F4-605R (N685FE) on take-off roll, departing RNO.

US Airways Airbus A319-132 (N826AW), in state of Arizona livery pushing back from the gate for a flight to PHX.
As is obvious from the tail-number, this aircraft was originally delivered to America West Airlines, prior to the merger.

Photo taken from SWA FL442 en route to PDX. My first air-to-air photo. It was pretty neat to see some other air traffic.

Delta Air Lines Boeing 767-332/ER (N187DN) at the gate at PDX, getting ready for a flight to Tokyo-Narita (NRT).

Delta Air Lines Airbus A330-323X (N810NW) at the gate at PDX, having just arrived from Amsterdam (AMS). As apparent from the tail-number, this aircraft was originally delivered to Northwest Airlines prior to the Delta-Northwest merger that occurred a few years back.
Delta recently upgraded the PDX-AMS route from the A330-200 to the 300 series in order to increase passenger capacity.
