JFK Spotting 2/16/08

Hello,

Anyone into meeting up on Saturday for some spotting out at JFK? The forecast is calling for mostly sunny skies. It is supposed to be cold and windy, but sunny. I am planning on going out around noon or so, hopefully to Firestone if they are using 31R.

Later,

Brian

I will be out early to test out my repaired Lens before my Trip.

If you're there around 9:15, could you get a shot of my departing flight? I'm on DL 5506 from JFK to BOS...CR-9! :wink:

Not sure if anyone will be shooting departures tomorrow afternoon, but if you're out and happen to get a shot of DL147 departing to ATL at around 4:30, I'll be on her (in biz class!)

Got out for a little while today - got to Firestone around Noon, of course, I missed Jet Airways again :(
Spent a little time then went off to take care of a few things before heading back. Found Mike (Bellucciman) at Firestone and did some shooting with him.

Haven't caught this one in a while.

Another Firestone Bank Shot...the RJ before him made some S-turns for spacing, causing this guy to go around.

I keep getting the EK 777, first time I've seen the A340 in a while.

This guy passed overhead after departing 31L.

Moose, nice shots. I was out at Firestone also in the afternoon, I did not see anyone else out there. Where were you? Here are some quick edits of my favorite shots of the day. Moose maybe next time I will run into you. Later, Brian

Moose you're having as much luck with Jet Airways as I had with Cathay and the A340-600! :)

Nice shots, Brian. Sorry we missed you - Mike and I were down right next to the Firestone building. I usually don't park that far down, but that's where I found him when I got there.

You guys were clearly out there at the same time...you both got the KLM MD-11 and the Emirates A340, and those are definitely once-a-day visitors :)

Moose, I'm surprised about the Air Jamaica A340...I thought they stopped sending those to JFK...

Good shots, both of you...

My first time out since October! It was great hanging out with Moose, definitely been a long time!

Here are a few quick edits, I still have a lot to go through and post.
