My friend is a CFI at Livermore airport in CA. He was ferrying a C172 across Sacramento the other day when he was told. 'Hold 4500ft traffic passing beneath at 4000ft' I thought this was cool enough until he showed me exactly what it was and said he got his camera out cos it was my favorite. Pretty nice to know it was taken for you lol

Hmm. You must have forgotten to turn in your confirmation code to the Atlas Manager (again) because I don't see this flight in your log.

I've been a GC member for going on 4 years now and still have yet to see a real polar airplane. I think I saw the tail of an atlas on approach to MEM at night but when i drove around the airport to get a better look at it I couldn't find it anywhere. I hear "Polar" and "Giant" on the radio every now and then, especially overhead ORD in the evening but never see them.
