Send the pic and the flight # info and they should be able to find it.

My niece, who lives just outside of Dallas, said they had a beautiful sunset last night. What a great out the window shot, to capture not only the sunset but the lights of the terminal, too!
We had beautiful colors here, too. I posted this on fb
