Hi NustyR,

Same thoughts overhere! Shame from position Basgu A6-EDA was too far north as A6-EDB was full in the sun.
Better luck next time! :roll:

Commemorative moment:

Headlights on!

On 10 December last I captured UAL 901 (N178UA) on a NAPSI departure
Surprisingly it still has it's headlights on. Is this normal or is it a normal
procedure. Comments appreciated.

I don't know the procedures at UAL, but i heared that most airlines keep the lights on untill passing FL100, just like the seatbelt signs etc...

Normally they switch their landing lights off when passing 10.000ft
