This is the closest I've ever been to an active runway . . .

I titled this picture incorrectly . . .

It's not Comair, but ASA . . .

Too bad the pilots for this carrier make about what a bus driver makes salary wise.

It's a comfortable flying aircraft ... It flys like a dream . . .

But, not comfortable to sit in ...

Geez, they really squeeze you into tiny seats on this aircraft . . .

Nice shot, Jet!

We used to pull up to the end of the runway (on Irving Park Road) at O'Hare and take pictures of the planes, taking-off and landing right overhead. Awesome and exhilerating experience. It must've been exciting to be on the field near the runway!
