I was positioned between the parallels (16R and 16L) and just a few feet to the right of the PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicators) for 16R. The location was absolutely perfect. Several arrivals touched down directly next to me.

Gary, that's an "up close and personal" encounter in this superb photo capture!!!

Your proximity to the PAPI paid rich dividends!

Perfect!

Hiho, Cliff. Sure did. As you know, I usually just do "one-a-day" posts, but for today and the next couple, I'm going "overboard" (lol) with two-a-day because the captures from this spot were super close. Also did some snapping from the catwalk on the top of the green end-of-approach / start-of-runway approach lights scaffold just near the 34L-16R overrun. Will share those some other time.
TYVM for your compli. Check out the other shot (SW) I'm putting up now. PS ... Click FULL on both for best Q.

Gary, you're welcome and thanks for the backstory on these shots... and the Southwest N7820L landing at KRNO too. I'll be waiting to see the others not yet uploaded!!!
