PHOTOS OF THE WEEK: Third week of April

Dipping into the archive this week, as I've been busy with work and getting our pullets and cockerels set up in the coop. I went back to a few shots from January, February, and March for this series, showcasing some of my favorite aviation shots from this year, so far.

My grandfather, an engineer for Boeing, played a hand in designing the landing gear and wing design for not only the 727, but the 737 as well. The aircraft pictured was the first 727 off the production line, and now resides at the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

An Emirates A380 cruises overhead at 35,000 feet, on its way from Dubai to Los Angeles. Stehekin gets some small general aviation aircraft into our airstrip through the flying season, most sporting big tires and tailwheels, but GPS waypoints bring some interesting aircraft overhead throughout the day.
