IN FOCUS HIGH FIVE One of five 747-8 Freighters operated by Moscow-based AirBridgeCargo, Russia’s largest cargo airline, flies over the mountains of Washington state prior to its recent delivery. Boeing photographer Ed Turner captured this photo from Wolfe Aviation’s Learjet, which is specially modified for air-to-air photography. Turner mounted his camera in a pod under the wing of the Learjet and controlled it from inside the cabin. While flying in a carefully coordinated chase formation, he estimated the 747 was about 200 feet (60 meters) away when he took this picture. PHOTO: ED TURNER/BOEING 42 Frontiers March 2014
