| None (cn None) A view of Hopkins from 1999 showing the D concourse under construction, as well as the original runway lineup. The runways were still numbered 23LR and 05LR, and 18/36 still looked like a runway even though it had been decommissoned as such some time before. If you look closely you can see a Rich International L-1011 parked near the A concourse, as well as a UPS 757 on the old 18/36. 1999 | |||

| N566EA (cn 381) An unusual aircraft for a charter from Alaska, but a very welcome one nonetheless. It was really cool to see a Convair still in passenger configuration, and actually being used as such. This aircraft served many years with Anchorage Alaska based Era Aviation before being exported to New Zealand in 2006. Parked on an icy Air Services ramp in 1999. | |||

| HZ-HR1 / HZ-HR3 (cn 21853) Three privately owned 727's rest on the Air Services ramp in the summer of 1999. Two of the aircraft are registered to the Saudi Oger construction company (HZ-HR1 cn 21853 and HZ-HR3 cn 22968), while the third, N721MF (cn 22687)appears to be operated by a company called Wedge Aviation. This aircraft, as well as HZ-HR3 have since been converted to Super 27 status with new engines and winglets. I do not know what they were all doing here at the same time. 1999 | |||

| N814NK (cn 49619) This MD-80 was a riot of color whenever it stopped by while wearing Spirit's special 10th Anniversary scheme. Long since repainted, it still flies with Spirit today. (Note the old Sky Chefs kitchen behind the aircraft. This has long since been torn down to make way for the north side taxiway to the back of the D concourse.) 1999 | |||
