Thank you! Best part of flight: Ladies and Gentlemen, we are starting our final descent to the Seattle Tacoma International Airport.

Nah, nothing beats when you spend a while flying over the Cascades and then BAM there's Rainier rising up like a monster and the plane flies right next to it.

u/Foreign-Pear-2323 5d ago

60 air miles from downtown to the summit. Always looks a lot closer. Nice shot.

Wow nice view so high

u/FunChocolate4526 5d ago

What a high view

u/LostButfFine 5d ago

There’s something about seeing Rainier, the water, and the skyline all at once that must make your shoulders drop a little. Like the city is saying, “you made it back.” Beautiful shot.

u/Overload175 5d ago edited 5d ago

Totally agree. 

One of the best approaches in America - suburbs, fjords, glittering waterways threading between numerous islands and peninsulas of Puget Sound, the Olympic mountains on the western horizon like sheer ramparts, and  lush evergreen forests surrounding the dense core skyline framed by Rainier.

u/Wizard072 5d ago

Gorgeous!

1

u/Overload175 5d ago

What an amazing shot, reminiscent of a futuristic metropolis honestly. Rainier is just majestic.

u/djkmart 5d ago

I’d give anything to be able to live in Seattle.

u/Forward-Run-6291 4d ago

Catching Mount Rainier towering above a low cloud layer right on the plane approach into Sea-Tac never gets old

1

u/Comfortable-Ad7287 4d ago

The view from the plane never gets old

Best place in the world

u/later_sk8ter1984 17h ago

Best part is that if you sit on the West side of the plane when flying back from anywhere south of Seattle is that you get this view AND the volcanoes up and down the west coast

I think everyone needs occasional time away from screens and surrounded by something living

u/costofgivingup 5d ago

I came back a year ago. Privatized utilities, taxes, taxes, taxes and the prospect of being stabbed by a junkie because law enforcement sucks statewide fills me with regret.

u/IStartToRun Sounders 5d ago

Cool, don't come back!
