Hello OPShots ! | Who's Spotting? | Forum

Wanted to pop in and introduce myself. Been a casual aviation spotter in the Cleveland area for a good while. Stepped up the hobby once I became serious with photography a few years ago. While KCLE is the main location to fill my memory cards, also travel to Nevada a few times a year and spot at KLAS, KLSV, KEDW, really anywhere out there!

You have a great site here, wish I would've found it sooner. Was pointed here by a member, Mike, who connected with me on Flickr. You have to love social media! Makes the world a much smaller place.

Looking forward to sharing with you all.

 Hey Hank! I'm glad you made it to Opshots! Like I said, it's a great community of spotters and aviation enthusiasts and I think it is awesome to know we have one more. Hope to see you this weekend and the other Opshotters!

Yes it sure is ! Great photos and info. Thanks again for the tip!

Hi Hank…glad to have you on board!  I've been checking your site too, and you've got some really nice stuff!  I'm happy you found us and look forward to meeting you one of these days!

Thanks Chuck! I am sure we'll bump into each other somewhere, Cleveland isn't that big! Appreciate the kind words on my site, been a labor of love for too long . . .somtimes just a labor, lol ;)

Hello again Hank! We met Friday at the Saudi A340 landing. Welcome to an elite squad of aviation geeks!

Hey there DJ! Yes it was really alot fun, happy we didn't get chased away either. Was so neat knowing you guys were probably from here as I was walking up. Happy to find OPShots !

Well, I wasn't in the area until recently, but won't bore the other members with the catching up convo. We can do that at the pier between action.

I hope to get there around 9:30ish, gray Malibu with Area 51 sticker in the back window (no, not a UFO freak, but am a huge A51 fan). Looking forward to a DRY day and nice little sunburn!
