Photo Diary: Some Plane-Spotting in St Pete FL [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Albert Whitted Airport in St Pete FL is located right on the shore of Tampa Bay, next to the Pier. It is a General Aviation airport and is usually pretty busy with in and out traffic. So here are a few planes spotted while I was having lunch nearby.

(I’m not “up” on IDing General Aviation planes, so it’s Google’s fault if any of my IDs are incorrect.)

Google wants to put this as a Bristell, but it’s not—there’s no tricycle gear, and the tail is too thick.

Some more searching tells me it’s a Mudry Cap-10B. (Google managed to find the specific tail number.)

Whatever it is, I love the paintjob on it

Beechcraft Baron

Piper Tri-Pacer

Cessna 172

Cessna 560 Citation Encore. I was a bit surprised to see a jet flying out of Whitted—it’s not all that big of a runway.

Tampa Airport was also sending some flights out over the Bay. Delta Airbus A333.
