JFK 03/09/08 - Pics

Ok, so I wasn't planning on heading out today, but early in the afternoon, with my Honey-Do list complete and daylight savings time on my side, I set forth for Howard Beach. With depertures running over an hour late, my goal of the Argentine 340, India 777, and South African 340 went only 2/3's complete. Here's a very brief recap.

Hope to see you out there soon.

Air India 777-300ER on daylight departure???!!! great catch!!

Well it was cold as heck out there with the wind blowing as hard as it was today.
Tower was reporting winds 270 @ 25kts w/higher gusts at times.
I finally had a few hours to myself and wanted to give the new 40D a go.
Spent about an hour at HoBe, then over to Firestone.
One of our regulars stopped by Firestone for a bit, but for the life of me I cant remember your name now, sorry dude.
We both spent the majority of time in our cars, only getting out to shoot.
Here's just a few from today, I'll add more in the next few days.

Was that you in the Kangol baseball cap? Nice shots btw.

Ummm, no, I had on a tan Gulfstream baseball hat....and Thanks!

Wow...how late was Air India?

Good stuff...I was out at LGA for a couple of hours, but I didn't see anything even remotely unusual (or anything bigger than a 737...), and it was way too windy, and the light wasn't great...

Air India rotated at around 1815 (due to go at 1710). I was fast losing light and fearful I would't get a decent look. South Africa continues to avoid me.
