PHOTOS: PHL - July 29, 2009

Highlight was the AA 762 diversion this morning, and the sun manage
tom pop out just a bit when it departed. A few nice biz jets today
too.

In the afternoon heavy storms hit NYC so off to PHL in hopes of
diversions. Only a couple AA258 (757), a CO flight 737 - I didn't
catch the Fl. number from EWR.

We probably would have had a few more if PHL didn't get hit by storms
too. It did cause DL1014 some anxious moments. It declared a fuel
emergency and landed on RW17. A first for me in more ways than one.
First time I saw an emergency land on 17, 1st time I saw a MD-80 and
DL land on 17.

And of course my first A321 splash down.
