Maryland One is absolutely my fav too. The first time I ever saw Maryland One it was taking off directly over my head from San Diego Intl KSAN and I almost crashed my car gazing at it.

LOL, I'll have to let you know. Probably some beat up old -500 model with parts missing and paint wearing off. :lol:
