SPAD XIII Fighter
We landed and taxied to Terminal 3 at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) a little after 16:00. The walk from our Gate to our baggage took us past this SPAD XIII World War I French fighter. Comprised of parts from three original SPAD aircraft, this plane was restored with 80 percent original parts and 20% replicated parts. The plane was suspended dramatically from the ceiling over a set of long escalators that took you down to the arrivals level.
Nikon D700 | Nikon AFS 24-85mm 3.5-4.5G VR @ 24mm | ISO200 | 1/3 sec @ f7.1 | VR on.
