Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner (N38950) - KSFO - Mar 14, 2020 and after the SFO airline collectible show same date, we had light rain in the bay area region - before my 5 hr drive back home, I wanted to hit the top floor of long term parking again,,,and I didn't know it at the time, this was United Airlines 1st Boeing 787-9 ( Delv Sept 2014) departing for long distance points west...The day before we had heat haze and sunny weather, this rain blast off 28R added to the take off roll. I will definitely be back to this location again.......before Mar 2021 Show!

Great photo Tom - nothing like a little bit of moisture to give a pic a kick. We'll be waiting to see what you see when you get back there.

Thank you OzGman__ this is a tough spot, handheld probably half to three quarters of a mile away..I'm bringing the tripod next time and aim it on the 28LR approach Runways - using the 100-400mm ought to be pretty good lens use & digital video..the last time March 2020 it was hot and very windy which would have produces too much camera shake. PM was raining..We'll see.......
