Everybody seems to like the airplane sites I've found, so as I come across more, I'll post them to this thread.

Just found this one Friday;

I like this picture:

It looks like smoke, but I'd bet the runway is wet and it's just spray. Look at the front tires. They look wet. Also, the gap in the engine cowlings looks like he's got the thrust reversers on.

Thanks Skybill.

By the way, here's a shot of a 747 jumbo jet landing in Hong Kong during a crosswind. (Yep, next time you're taking a bus!)

If you're now hooked on jets landing sideways, view this one (the third one is the most spectacular):
