I will be meeting a group of people from flytertalk.com on the roof of the new parking garage on Saturday around 12:30pm. We needed a place where we can all find each other before going inside. So if you are scheduled for the 1pm tour come join us and introduce yourself. If you are schedule at a different time then why not change your tour to 1pm and join us? It would be nice to meet some of the members.

Hi all, long time no talk. My girlfriend and I will be there for the 1:30 tour, but am planning to arrive quite early to have some 'quality time' with the camera on top of the garage. I'd love to meet some y'all. I'm a big guy (6'5" and 280), brown hair, glasses, and big Olympus DSLR camera. I know I'm not on here very often, but I'd like to meet some of you. Here's to a good day at the airport!

Indy, good to meet you today. Between the new terminal and the spotting I did from the top of the garage, I took about 600 photos. It's going to take me a while to get them all sorted and pick out the best ones, but I will eventually be posting some pics from today (both of the terminal and spotting).
I was VERY impressed with the new terminal.

That is what I'm working on now. I didn't take as many as you but it was over 800mb worth. I had issues with lighting in the inside especially in baggage claim and the concourses. It seems there was too much light for my flash to be effective but not enough light for a nice bright shot. Frustrating. I took a whole 1 minute of video lol. I'm not even going to bother ripping it from tape.

I didn't do a very good job of meeting up with people from here and flyertalk. Only met a couple of people from here and missed everyone from flyertalk. I'd go back today if it weren't for the Colts game being on tv. Can't miss that. Now if they are stinking it up really bad I might leave the game and go back. But not certain of that.
