You included photos of the Burkina 727 and Vietnam 777. But I don't see them in your blog. When did they come in??
It'd be great to see a recap of what arrived by date and at what airport, like you've done in years past

Thanks for the recap, Senga! It was great seeing you last week, and thanks for all the updates along the way!

No problem John,
I will be sure to send the bill out to everyone for the cost of all the batteries I ran through on the three scanners I had with me! :)
Glad I could help.

I really enjoyed looking at all of these Senga!!
Love the Iran Air 747SP and Obama's Air Force One.

Thanks fly.mcs,
That one is an older shot of EP-IAD from 2 years back. IRA101 came in with little light this year. I was going to use my classic "dissed by Ahmadinejad" shot but decided to use the normal one. He left me down again- How many times can he do this to me?!. Yea I needed AF1 with Obama on it at least once.

great recap, as always, Senga. And you know I love that Iran 707 thing. hahahaha
Re: United Nations VIP Week 2009 summary. Text and Photos
Senga, if you don't answer my question I'm telling Akmedinejihad to not send you a 707 next year either...

Mario,
Sorry I didn't notice your post.
I left out the "spotted aircraft" as the intro was getting a bit long.
I did go back and re-add it now to you can see few movements that others reported that were not under my watch.
Here's the re-added part.
This list will also include the following aircraft that were spotting either at night or by other photogs. If you see any I missed or forgot to add please let me know.
Bulgarian T154 LZ-BTZ JFK
Mexican Air Force B752 TP-01 EWR
Equatorial Guinea Falconjet 3C-ONM EWR
Burkina Faso B722 XT-BFA EWR
Vietnam Airlines B772 VN-???? JFK
HiFly A310 CS-TEX JFK
Austrailian Air Force A36-00? HPN

Phil, Heck yes,
I want that 707 so badly! I'd want it over the 747SP any day.
One day I will hear IRS instead of IRA on the scanner and I will be pleased.
Mario R,
The day I get that plane is the day I stop taking pix :lol:
Mario C,
Thanks for the compliments :)

Senga, thanks a lot for your summary and lots of kudos to your dedication. For people like me who can only afford 1 trip to JFK and 1 trip to SWF, your summary is very valuable to have the whole picture of the UN week.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the compliments Jiasong,
I'm glad I can contribute something that some people find the summary useful.
