Spotting 4's in the afternoon.

Was trying out a new spot today for the 4's. Seemed to be a good neighborhood. Planes are a bit high, but its workable.

The A380 looks lovely from that spot

That almost looks like the angle from this one spot I found back in 2004... I forget where it is but it was definitely in what I thought was a shady neighborhood - but near the water. I do remember going down Cross Bay Blvd quite a ways and paying a toll...

I know where you're talking about. The residents are unusually friendly...zooted, but friendly.

SERPENTES!!!!

Eric and Kenny and Steve. You must add this to the maps. We now have a new option.

You were prob somewhere in Rockaway...just not sure where. Which part you were in, makes a difference in how shady it was.

I don't know if a regular plane would look as good from there, but as far as the A380 goes, the ugly bloated bastard looks majestic and almost graceful all of the sudden :mrgreen:

Maybe it's the way the light is hitting it, I don't know. Might be simply that Eric just got a perfect shot. Hands down my fav. of the AF A380 in NYC so far!

Agreed that 1st A380 shot is off the scale. :borat: I've been looking around for a spot I can use with my low range. So far I havent tried anything but I think I found an area. Will get back to all of you.
