Well, wasn't able to get very good shot, but here it is taxiing out to the North side, and then the departure.


OK, how about today at the Proud Bird Parking lot?


VOODOO1 has just filed a flight plan.  It is scheduled to depart PMD317015 () at 09:30PM GMT heading for KLAX (Los Angeles Intl) for an arrival at 02:00PM PST.

Expected route: ROSIE PMD SADDE6

Title: Re: VOODOO1 Alert
Post by: Wolf on March 03, 2008, 12:20:12 PM
Looks like it will be returning today at 2:00pm to LAX from Palmdale.

Will post some pics tonight when I get home. Got a couple shots taxiing out, then when I saw turn to the North runway, I headed to Napoleon and Rindge (NW) to try and catch the departure, and I made it.

Voodoo1 is scheduled to return to LAX at 14:27 today. If I can, I will head to the Proud bird parking lot.

Check this flight out. I suspect a glitch somewhere in Flightaware. The flight path may be correct but I think it would take a lot longer than it says. I also noticed that 2 other aircraft are using the VOODOO1 callsign (an F-22 and an H-60)
