    I found it. The website is wrong, the XLT Sport option is not available in the F450 even though i found the picture in the F450 section and the picture was labeled as an F450. I had to look up the F350 and even then they are only available in the Automatic Trans because they are Captians. :rant...

    I was just saying that most people are here from Oct-Feb (mainbody), i was here for windfly too. I hear it was a pretty mild windfly compared to other years so i still think i had it easy.

    more just came to mind: If you get a job down here you get a free trip to New Zealand and with Australia right next door (along with other countries in route) it could be a great oportunity to get a summer job (Oct 2008 - Feb 2009) and hit some near by countries that would normaly be...

    John, i think there are only two ways you are going to get down here. 1) get sponsered by the NSF to come down here or 2) the easier way is to get a job down here. Are you a full time photographer? check out Raytheon Jobs & Employment Opportunities and do a search online for the NSF (national...

    Great shots! What kind of camera and lens? I assume you are using a DSLR, are you shooting in RAW? That last picture would look great as a picture (like one you would hang on your wall).
