No sign of how long it might stay here.

At an ice cream shop off of W. 130th when I saw him enter the pattern, then I saw him gears down about ten minutes after that (in the same ice cream shop drive thru Yell)...

Dang...I completely missed it!  Would sure be nice if it was still there Friday at say, noonish?  I doubt it though.  I was working over on the D side tonight in a windowless room, so no wonder I missed it.  If it wasn't for a co-worker calling me to tell me to take my camera and go outside, I wouldn't even have seen the storm tonight!

That beautiful DC-8 is still parked on the South Cargo Ramp as of 0530 Friday morning and it doesn't look like it's going anywhere soon.  Love the National paint scheme on that plane.

I think you will get your wish Chuck.....Still there at 9:30A no sign of leaving...

Good news is this is a different National DC-8 ,this is N872CA and it has a little different and I think better paint scheme....It is really nice! Got a shot of it this morning..........

Where is it parked?  South cargo?  I'm off today, so maybe I'll take a ride out to see it!
