As I was beginning my Atlantic crossing last night, I was provided a rare sight out my window while cruising at 35000 feet. Off the right wing of our United 777-200ER was a sight that has become familiar to the readers of this blog, but I had yet to see one in person. This Aviation Partners/Boeing wingletted American Airlines 767-300ER was 2000 feet below us as we flew over the eastern coast of Canada. I frantically snapped about 25 pictures of the aircraft as we passed it, but of those photos, this one was the clear winner amongst a batch of blurry shots.
