Were the winds favoring the 1s, they rarely do so that’s really cool!

[Kevinsoto1502]

Yeah it was a cool event! It was a very tricky approach

[Kevinsoto1502]

Nice pics! I was taking off in a Cessna while y’all were approaching/landing and I was literally surrounded, I was tryna get out of there so fast😂

Remarkable post @Kevinsoto1502! It was indeed a very interesting, challenging, and fun approach into SFO with the group. I had a great time flying with all of you guys! Those photos are top notch! 👌 💪

[Kevinsoto1502]

Thanks you sir! It was indeed great flying with the group. Loved the approach into 1R

[Kevinsoto1502]

Hahaha I saw you😂 I felt bad I was constantly checking ti see if you were still in the airspace🤣

[Speedyyy]

Yea thankfully I managed to get out of there without interfering with y’all lol, in a strange way it was a bit scary, it felt like I was in the ocean being surrounded by sharks😂😂

Awesome pictures! Love the 1R/1L visual approaches. Which happen very rarely

[Kevinsoto1502]

[Kevinsoto1502]
