A Day at the airport

Have you seen the bumper sticker a bad day fishing is better then a good day at work? I think that's the same as being at the airport. I was at the 172 Hanger at KSAT, which is abeam the touchdown point of 12R (san antonio's main runway).
It's fun sometimes to just pull a lawn chair out and watch the planes come and go. We have all types, GA, corporate, Airline, Freight, Everything from the smallest GA to 747's. It always interesting to see whats coming and going. We even have a p-51 p-38, and a f-4 corsair that frequent SAT.







The only downside to being at a large field, is there usually is no one else around...close by. It doesn't have that small field feeling, where people are sitting around a picnic table telling "there I was 35,000 feet, in the soup, inverted" stories.






But it sure is fun to sit and watch the "neighbors".


There is just something about being at the airport!
