RFD - Greater
Rockford Airport. We're southbound to the left of
the north-south runway (runway 1/19) after breaking off the
ILS approach. You can see that the beginning of runways 19 and
25 are under construction. Runway 1/19 was actually closed, but
lucky for us the ILS was still operational.

The Commonwealth
Edison Rockford Nuclear Power Plant. Took this shot while
we were on approach for runway 1.

This is a quarry of some kind. It looks small from the air,
but the size of the cars on the expressway gives you some idea
of scale. I'm pretty sure that the trucks you see in the quarry
itself are the very large earth-moving dumptrucks... the kind
you basically need a ladder to get into.
