On this perticular day I spent most of the afternoon set up at the same location wondering will two cars end up passing within a few blocks of my location? As I watched Brussels 737 depart inbound from the ferry plaza, I knew in the back of my mind that 496 a former resident of Melbourne Australia had to be getting close. I turned around, and there was 496 outbound from Fisherman's Wharf. Like I said I hoped the two would pass each other within a few blocks of me, instead it all unfolded right before my eyes, almost as if dispatch set the whole thing up....Timing
