After arriving SFO early on the Sunday morning I had about 26 hours or so to wait until my flight to Singapore on Monday morning. I'd done this before - spend the entire day and then
the night at SFO prior to a flight - so I knew where I wanted to wait and what I wanted to do.
The weather was quite nice and photography of the airliners was pretty decent. My spot in the international terminal overlooking the "Star Alliance" gates and United terminal is
pretty good, with AC power available for charging stuff. Due to the configuration of the runways and terminals however I typically miss a good portion of the international arrivals
that park at Terminal A, as well as anything going out on the runways 01. The trade-off is a great view of departures off the 28s and anything parking at Terminal G.
Below are some photos I made during my stay at SFO on 4/5 February 2018:

Seafood meal served up an hour after takeoff. Seat 48J was vacant for the flight...very nice.
