Well since we hadn't been to the land of the mouse since 2005 my wife and I decided to pay Mickey and Minnie a visit for a fortnight. As usual the holiday included a bit of aircraft spotting as well as taking in the Tampa Bay Rays v New York Yankees baseball game at Tropicana field.
Copped in total 160 plus so I will give you a brief overview of what I saw. (All Cops)
22/09/2009 Manchester
N682GA G200
Flew to Orlando on G-VGAL as it was my wifes birthday we upgrade to Premium Class.
On arival at MCO
HP1370CMP 737 Copa
N416XJ Saab 340 NW Airlink
N641JB A320 Jet Blue N240AT 737 Air Tran
Plus a few Air Tran which I did not cop.
28/09/2009 Orlando (MCO)
Spent 7 hours on the 9th Floor Central car park after I had first gone to GOAA (Greater Orlando Aviation Authority) and got my spotting pass. The pass lasted for the two weeks, and advice is that you get one. For anyone who has not been to MCO the GOAA Office is near to Starbucks in the main terminal.
Anyway enough of the admin I copped the following

Orlando has changed quite a bit the SW terminal which used to house Air Tran is now the Orlando hub for SW and Jet Blue, and if you go you will see lots of both.
Air Tran are now in the Delta terminal, the latter of whom are not as busy at the airport since my last visit.
Saw loads of biz lots which I could not get either because of the position they were in or because of the heathaze I would say I missed about another 40 biz because of these factors.
Part 2 to follow
