I took these two pictures when I got back from vacation in June. I took them out of the aircraft window so the quality blows, but these birds are quite rare for IND. They are an Air France A340 and an Air One (An Italian Airline) A330. Anybody know why they were here on the 28th of June?

Probably a weather diversion from ORD.

No way. I was flying MSP-IND on NW and there were no weather issues as we flew over Chicago.
Why do my favorite airlines end up going defunct??http://web01.jetphotos.net/showphotos.php?userid=16657

Maybe they were ferrying somewhere for delivery. Perhaps another airline had purchased these aircraft and they were on their way to be refitted or something. I can't think of any other reason on the 28th of June.
