Post subject:  Burchie vs. 747

I had a photo shoot at the Victorville Airport last weekend. The company paints airplanes. Big airplanes. This is a 747 for United Airlines that had just been completed. The last shot is of a new 777 waiting for paint.

It's not a shoot at the playboy mansion, but it was cool.

Nice shots, you have a pretty cool job Burchie. Must be one expensive paint job. My little bro is a county firefigher in NM, their trucks have the same color paint that you see on the fire trucks at airports, he says that it's a $10,000 option. I can't imagine what it costs to paint a plane.

Hey, there was just a pilot's NOTAM for AirForce1 at Victorville. Guess they camo'ed AF1 as UA the Friendly Skies. Nice pix of the cover up.

He'd have to stand too far from the camera and tripod.

I like to think more of a kick stand. I get tired of standing all the time. But enough about Matt.

It was cool to watch them paint. How they get lines down the side of the plane straight, I have no idea. I'll see if I can find out how much that paint job cost. Maybe they can fix my hood...
