I guess it qualifies as a geek alert being that we don't see them like we used to and there are not many left!

This G-IV is also showing on flightaware and I thought it was an interesting routing non-stop from Finland (N510MG).  ETA 09:24a:

Sure it qualifies, and oddly enough, just before I read this post I took shots of it as it passed over my house!

I was just thinking, man, in the span of about 1 hour at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, I saw with my own 2 eyes a DC-8 (National), a DC-9 (Delta) and a DC-10 (FedEx).  Wow, life is good.  Laugh  Love the classics.  How many more times is that going to happen?

Haha - I didn't think of that but that is pretty cool!  Saw them also.

All classic Douglas birds...nice!  No offense to Boeing, but Douglas really built them to last...look at how many DC-3's or variants are still out there!
