Prior to the start of the 2013 International Society for Aviation Photography symposium in Seattle, I joined up with my good friend Rob Edgcumbe to cruise the area in search of photographic subjects. We caught this BBJ2 on final approach to Paine Field. The Boeing Business Jet series are variants of Boeing jet airliners for the corporate jet market.  First flown in 1999, the first BBJ was based on the 737-700 with the stronger wing and landing gear of the 737-800. In 2002, the -800-based BBJ2 offered a 25% larger cabin with longer range.  More than 150 BBJs have entered service, triple the initial forecast of 50.  Nikon D7000 w/70-200mm.
