Airline flying pictures

Had a chance to get some good pictures earlier this week from the plane both going and coming back from NYC. The flight was from RDU to LGA in a CRJ900. The flight to LGA went up to I believe 32,000 feet and took about an hour, the flight coming back cruised at 28,000 feet and took about an hour and fifteen minutes. The weather was great for "big plane" flying.

Shortly after departure from runway 23R at RDU, so over Morrisville, about 6:25am.

Nice picture looking towards the sun with the misty clouds down below.

Same as above.

Our plane for the trip to NYC, CRJ900. We flew on the same thing back to RDU.

Shorty after departure from runway 4 at LGA, we made a left turn towards the northern part of Newark. This is a picture of the Hudson River looking south, Manhattan Island on the left, New Jersey on the right. The USAirways flight that crashed in the Hudson went down about 6-7 miles past the bridge you can see going over the river.

Somewhere over the northern Virginia on a beautiful day. I love how dark the sky gets at higher altitudes.

Falls lake with a small grass strip just north of Durham. The highway you see is I-85.

On the downwind to runway 5L at RDU. Good view looking east of the interchange where NC-147 (Durham Freeway) dumps out onto I-40.
