G-CIVJ / Unknown (cn 25817) A complete luck shot for me today as I never saw the FedEx MD-10 coming! British Airways flight 197 from London (EGLL) to Houston passes over FedEx 764 from Memphis to New York (JFK) above Cleveland with 1,000 foot separation.

Thanks guys! Yes, I was tracking the 747 and was on shot number twenty two when the MD-10 just showed up in my viewfinder! I wondered if I caught it by accident, and when I looked back I couldn't believe that I got lucky! I used my 100-400 lens on this.
