Well guys finally made the MKE trip, after a very rough start last week.

First I did my jumpseats

Midwest Connect 1365 DAY-MKE E135 N11526
Midwest Connect 1342 MKE-FNT E135 N12530
Midwest Connect 1345 FNT-MKE E135 N12530
Midwest Connect 1367 MKE-DAY E135 N15527

We did a visual to Runway 25L into MKE each time, over the beautiful Lake Michigan...WOW
And on the flight back to DAY we flew right over Celina at 15,000...LOVED IT

MKE is a spotters heaven, not only do they have a large spotters area at the end of Runway 19R,, but the airport authority encourages spotting from the parking garage and are very proud of their airport.

Well after looking at the Gallery of Flight Museum in the terminal, which is worth visit alone, made a trek to the huge bookstore, which you would not find in any airport, this is used and antique bookstore, got the book, "Milwaukee Counties General Mitchell Airport, A Record of Progress", and the photos alone are worth the book itself. Then armed myself with 2 large bottles of water and up to the garage.

If flights are arriving 25L, the garage is perfect, the aircraft taxi right to to the gate infront of you,
for 19R, which they switched to toward the end of my stay, the viewing area is better, but you can still great shots of the Air Tran, US Airways, American, Skywest, United and of course, Midwest and Frontier

TONS OF EMB 170's/190's/E145's and 135's for Midwest and Frontier. Finally saw N271SK and N175HQ in full Frontier colors and they are beautiful, and the Midwest 170's and 190's are my favorite, beautiful colors

A trip to MKE is worth it if you are ever in the area
