Air Spray Lockheed L-188 Electra Start Up & Take Off Houston Hobby Airport

After arriving in Houston, we got our rental car and headed to Houston Hobby Airport. We arrived there in the darkness of the evening and checked in to our hotel. My friends went out to get some food, but I was tired and opted to stay in the hotel. Soon I was on Flightradar24 scrolling through the on-ground list of Houston Hobby, and I noticed some very unexpected. Apparently there was a real Lockheed L-188 Electra on the ground! It was 66 year old C-FVFH, a firefighting plane belonging to a Canadian company called Air Spray. Just try to imagine the look on my friends faces when I told them about it! It was priceless! Turns out this Electra was on its way back to its homebase at Red Deer, Canada, after a deployment in South America. A sistership did the same thing earlier in the week but did not stop at Houston Hobby. Lucky for us, this one did! With renewed energy, we headed out to check where it was parked. It didn't take long to find it! Meanwhile, Flightradar showed it was due out the next day at 9 am, which was just perfect for our schedule! And indeed, right on time, the old bird started its four Allison engines and took off from runway 22. It was a great sight as it sped down the runway with a Boeing 737-200, a Gulfstream II and a Lockheed Lodestar in the background. Once airborne the smoketrails were nicely visible and I love that low droning sound! It's my very first catch of any Lockheed Electra! KLM used to have them a long time ago! They are very hard to find, unless you live near the couple of Canadian airports where they still operate from with Air Spray and Buffalo Airways. It's definitly a plane I never thought I'd see fly! Truly an epic catch and one of the best of this trip! This video is dedicated to my friends with whom I had a very memorable trip!
