I remember those baby "9`s", always was impressed by the extreme nose down attitude on final that was held to absolute last minute, due to lack of slats before flaring. Once saw one land on nose gear first, not pretty but uneventful.Thanks for sharing George.

Awesome sky in that one, and a great subject. Keep 'em coming! Where on the airport was that taken?
