On this trip, I took none of them. I used only my phone.
Chicago, looking to the north:
To the left, on the riverfront, is the (in)famous Watergate. To the right of that is the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. This photo was shot during the Potomac River Arrival into National Airport.
The photos are almost as good as I could have taken with my pocket camera. The tradeoff is that I had one less thing to bring along.

Yeah, you don't see many real cameras anymore. when I was in New York, the only cameras I saw were very complicated-looking things, indicating that the photographer was probably professional. Things, and industries, change quickly.
You just missed a photo of KCGX, whoops, my mistake, Daley’s bulldozer playground, on the Chitown picture. Jesus that looks familiar from a lot of circuits of Flight Simulator with a yoke while I was learning to fly. Not sure how much it helped my learning, but I never had any issues with having the correct “picture” during approach...sorry if that’s a sore reminder, Comrade. I’ve got about a week of issuing clearances left before that’s over (due to medical too).
Next time you are coming to Chicago, let me know and if we can find the time to get together, I will buy you a beer or whatever beverage you would like.
Downtown is only 40 minutes away by car for me.
B, Thank you. But, other than changing planes at either ORD or MDW, I haven't been in Chicago in decades.
