This was my first visit to the Valley of the Sun in a year and my first to T4 in the better part of a decade. Even in the darkness, the Sky Train ride to the rental car center was clearly a gamechanger for spotters.

I arrived at sunrise so as to get ahead of work obligations and did a complete but hurried circuit of the field. Things continue with the trend seen last year - warehouses are going up that are making my typical viewing spots harder (if not impossible) to use. The airport was as busy as ever though. A complete log follows:

…plus a number of aircraft hidden in the hangar, tantalizingly out of view of the general public.

…and this was in a week with (I think) no NASCAR race at nearby PIR.
I never got to do a second, more deliberate circuit later in the day so I had to live with what I got. Overall it was a great haul but fair warning that this airport is going to get harder for spotters.

I was able to take the amazing new Sky Train, only to T3. It provides excellent views landside, much as its analogue at IAH does airside. I never made it over to the FBO and cargo areas nor did I look at the Mesa hangar. Notables are below.
Air Canada 7M8 CGEQJ
Denver Air Connection FRJ N395DC
JSX ERJ N254JX
Mesa CR9 no longer in AA c/s
Rouge 321 CFJOU
US Air Force 76T 96062 parked near pax terminal with a KC-135, 90% sure of reg
WestJet 73H CGVWA
CR9 N944LR no titles
…plus an American 777 and more JSX Embraers.
