PHOTOS: Dallas Love Field- looking for LUV in all the right places....

Tags 737, dallas love field, southwest

Last week I finally had a nice block of free time to go spotting at Dallas Love Field. The traffic there doesn't have the volume that DFW has, obviously, but can be more interesting as there are a lot of business aviation operations out of Love compared to DFW and knowing that nearly all the commercial flights would be Southwest, I was going to try the time to see what I could do to make shooting nothing but Southwest *interesting*.

The 1/400 scale diecast company Gemini Jets came out with a nice scale model of the Janet Airways employee shuttle that takes workers back and forth between Las Vegas and the Groom Lake test facility. They opened up a contest to let collectors vote on box designs submitted by fellow collectors.
