My office window looks out at the Carlsbad airport, and we're directly under the STAR for KSAN traffic arriving from the North, so I see a lot of air traffic. However, today I saw something unusual, a 747 at about 10,000 heading out to sea. I looked it up on http://www.flightaware.com and low and behold, it was the new 747-800 on a test flight. Woo Hoo!
