Brings up old memories of gate 34 in SAN when we would have 757 come in the nose when parked correctly was only 4 feet or so from the terminal windows and towards the end of marshalling it in, we could barely see the pilot and pilot could barely see us. Was always a slow and cautious Marshal with the 757 as it was a tight fit.
Never had one run into the window though that I am aware of.
757 was the largest plane that could fit into that gate but it was also the largest plane we had so worked for us.
Really was a piece of cake once you did it a few times. First time you do it and have this big plane coming at you is a little intimidating as it working with a turbo prop and having to be within a few feet of the props to remove ground equipment.
I hated turbo props.
I have been trying to get back into a job loading planes and probably applied a dozen times this year alone.

Seeing as very, very few are willing to show themselves.
Here is the real me.

Yeah, me too... Somehow given Steve's photographic skills, I cant imagine him walking around with a selfie stick!

Is the real me. Halloween 6 years ago this October at Disneyland at the Halloween Party.... Was fun, although man does time fly, last time I was there as well....
I am rarely photographed, and currently don't have saved on the computer.

Rumours of Steve's deformity were grossly exaggerated!
...but on reflection your wedding pics were only about three years later weren't they?
