Why hello there United...

[Foxcow]

We were at FL360 RIC-STL yesterday. This guy was 1000' above. I didn't have time to swap to my big lens.



150mm, f/8, ISO 100, 1/800 on a Zuiko lens.

Yeah for sure

 

[killbilly]

Does a separation distance that close cause an RA?

Very artsy shot! Airnet material!:rawk:

I think you mean A.net material?!

Does a separation distance that close cause an RA?

Not unless they start descending, or you start climbing!!:bandit:

 

[JA Yawd Bwoy]

I think you mean A.net material?!

Airliners.net, Airnet, A.net, same thing lol

 

[xpanterica]

I wonder what kind of mind control agent is being dispersed in those chemtrails.

 

[Foxcow]

Thanks for the compliments folks. I have never been able to get anything on Airliners.net. Maybe my luck with change with this one.

Does a separation distance that close cause an RA?

Nope, TCAS II software was updated to V.7 fix this sort of thing prior to DRVSM airspace going live.

Great shot

Not really, Airnet is a freight company

 

[tlewis95]

That has got to be impressive to watch

Cool shot!

 

[Jimmy_Norton]

Were you worried about wake turbulence at all?

Nice shot!

 

[Foxcow]

Were you worried about wake turbulence at all?

Nice shot!

Nope. I have never gotten wake turbulence from traffic at altitude in cruise. Wingtip vortecies are a minimum.

They can still rock your world. :bandit:

 

[Foxcow]

I've never had it happen. C-5s, whales, 777s, etc at cruise. Never a burble... yet.

We have wake turbulence issues fairly often on the north atlantic track system. Oftentimes we'll offset to avoid it when the winds are at a velocity and angle to make it a factor.

Too many stories of sitting there working on a post position plot on Track B, then a 747 silently overtakes you from 1000 above, then WHOMP! Then the sound of crap falling in the forward galley and the A-line's walker rolling down the aisle.

 

[Foxcow]

Good to know info.

Ya, would have to agree. I couldn't figure what that meant at first.

 

[roundout]

Cool picture. IS that a full crop?

 

[Velocipede]

Yeah, its the overtaking that would give you a "wake ride".

 

[Foxcow]

Rejected from Airliners.net... Ah well. I give up.

Cool picture. IS that a full crop?

Full as in 100%? Nope. Full as in I did not have to crop out anything? Yes.
