JFK 11/9/08 - T5

I went up to the T5 parking lot this afternoon to check out the views. Tom Turner pulled up minutes after I got there, and we got to share a couple of enjoyable hours of spotting. What a great view! I never got up on the old Pan Am rooftop parking, but this is a really nice spot. Unfortunately, the Qatar 777 taxied past just as I pulled up, and I wasn't able to catch her. Here are a few shots:

They towed the A380 away from the gate and pushed it in between a couple of other jets parked near the terminal.

It was quite a traffic jam on the taxiways!

Nice shots everyone - that does seem to be a good new premium spot! As a bonus that you can sit in the car!
