I went to the superbowl with five mates at the weekend so I grabbed the chance to do a bit of spotting. I was first to land and I had three and a half hours to wait for my mate who was hiring the car. I intended to go to the airside viewing deck on concourse D but I had nearly an hour wait at immigration and then I was ushered out of international arrivals to landside. I decided to make the most of the remaining light by going to the car park top floor. Runways in use were 12L and 12R and both runways were being used for landing at the same time with a great view of both from the lift lobby. It was intensely cold so I couldn't really go outside and take pictures and the glass around the lift area was slightly tinted so, as it was getting dark quite quickly, I just stayed in the warm and spotted until it got too dark to read stuff off. I was the last to leave on the return journey on Monday, my flight was at 10.15 pm and I dropped off the last of my mates at 2.00 pm so I had a lot of time on my hands. Not knowing if I could get to the viewing deck, I decided to stay on the car park until after dark and took some pictures through the glass although they didn't turn out too badly.I managed to get the terminal wifi here which was a great help. I went through security about three hours before my flight and this was surprisingly quick so I realised that I could get to the viewing deck and spent more time up there before going to my gate. The viewing deck gave great views of runway 30R but 30L was behind the terminal so, although a lot taxied round in front, terminal 2 airlines, (Sun Country and Southwest), weren't seen. Everything could be read off in front of the deck though even in the dark. I made 192 in the relatively short time that I spent spotting most of which were Delta even though there was quite a bit I didn't need as I transited through here 9 years ago. I won't bore you with a list of Delta numbers but I made the following.
