Newest Australian bizjet

[Scott Lindsell]

Thought I was seeing things here at BFI today as an Australian Citation II rolled out in front of me. I was on the phone and totally missed shooting it so had to arrange for the necessary ramp tour to get my shots. Next stop was Ketchikan Alaska before Anchorage and then all stops back down to Oz. Enjoy!

Hi Scott,

I was interested to see that you had photographed the Citation outside Clay Lacy Aviation. Clay Lacy was a big name at Van Nuys in LA in the 1960s, flying the Hollywood Stars around the country in one of the first Lear Jets, N1965L. He is featured in One Six Right, The Romance Of Flying DVD, which I have an original copy of, with a note inside from Brian Terwilliger the producer.

When Brian released the Movie and DVD back in 2005, a lot of people were going to my web site www.16Right.com (http://www.16Right.com) looking to buy the DVD. Brian wanted to purchase the domain name from me, but I decided to place an banner ad on the home page instead. He send send me a first release copy of the DVD and CD soundtrack, and included a note acknowledging the exchange.

The One Six Right DVD truely is about the Romance of Flying, and has some great historical and current day HD footage.

Hi Graham,
Thanks. I remember the issues you had with the homepage when it occurred several years ago. Clay Lacy is still a huge part of his business running the two FBO's (here at BFI and also at VNY). He is still a part of the day to day ops also. I was down at VNY late last year and was trying to shoot the Caravelle (been wanting it for years!). Eventually the lady I was dealing with said "We'll let me just get Clay for you". I couldn't believe it! The conference room down there is chockers with his memorabilia. They have also just completed a new monster hanger here on the eastern side of the field.
Scott.

P.S) Hi Chris B! :)
