I think this is a military stop, due to the departing fighter jets.
I received a call from a friend who got scared because he saw some fighters circling Manhattan. He thought I'd know what it was about and I let him know about the F-18s in the area.
Been working Ramp Control since 1300 and have not seen any stops, we have long lines. as of 1645L they are about 25 for 13 and 2 for 22 in line. The F-18's made an impressive and very loud departure around 1545 !
LGA777
TSTMS ENRTE? The closest storms are in Maryland and not coming anywhere near LGA.Quote:
Due to TSTMS ENRTE, traffic is experiencing Gate Hold and Taxi delays between 1 hour and 1 minute and 1 hour and 15 minutes in length and increasing.
Yes indeed they did, I was spotting at the Marina from 2:50 till the 3 Super Hornets departed at around 3:45. One at a time and banked knife edge right over my head. Thank you for the heads up LGA777. I heard on the scanner to hold 13 departures for like 2 minutes but that was 20 minutes before the Rhinos departed, so who knows.
hour-long taxi times are normal between 1500 and 1900. it varies on exact times, but when i work nights i get constant phone calls from dispatchers and other stations wondering where airplanes are...
and the f-18 departures just made me want to go to the SNS airshow even more!
If someone sneezes at LGA they shut one runway down, or issue gate holds.
at LGA, if a bird farts, they either change runways or issue a go-around.
It must have been the military departure.
Thanks all,
