The shadow of the split scimitar winglet created by the angle of the early morning sun shows up perfectly on SWA's N8659D as it climbs away from runway 34L during a 7 AM departure from Reno Tahoe International. This B738 is only 15 months old.

Fred, TYVM for the comment. Very much appreciated. And welcome to FA. Those are great pics from ABQ. :-)
Hi, Mark. Thanx. Notice that pax over the wing? He seems to be looking at me ... but he isn't. What he is really looking at are two Coulson C-130 Air Tankers that were on the ramp right below my position. Tanker 131 (N130FF) and Tanker 132 (N405LC) are both here. I received an invite yesterday for a photo tour today, so I'll send you a snap of them along with that pic of the F/A-18E Super Bug at NFL.
