Back to Chicago to Complete the Storm Chaser Ribbon

[Bryan Opalka]

Here are some screen shots from the last leg of the Storm Chaser ribbon. This was my first ribbon flight and I flew the ribbon with the Chicago Mark's (Mark Newby and Mark Opalka).

Climbing out of KFWA:



Finally reaching the top of the clouds during climb out:



An outside view:



Getting below the clouds during approach to KORD:



Crossing the lakeshore on approach to KORD... nice view of downtown Chicago:



Final for KORD 28R... company traffic (Mark Opalka) has just touched down ahead of me:



The 3 of us at the gate in KORD... Mark Newby is the Noble plane in the back, then my Noble 737, and Mark Opalka is displaying as an American 737 (based on the aircraft model he was flying):



An edited view of approach to Chicago... turned night time into dusk:



Thanks,

[Mark Newby]

Nice screen shots there Bryan!! It was fun flying with someone else for a change.
