Emirates SkyCargo 777-200LRF @ SWF (Now @ JFK)
This is the second year in a row that the yearly horse charter from Sydney to SWF has been operated by an Emirates SkyCargo 777-200LRF. In past years the flight was operated by a FedEx MD-11 via HNL. Unfortunately I was not able to photograph the flight last year but I lucked out with the re-po departure this morning to JFK. The SYD-SWF sector is the longest flight Emirate SkyCargo has ever operated, here is a press link of the flight last year:

I'm not sure how long she will be at JFK for but here is the Flightaware link to the flight: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UAE4962
Definitely the earliest rotation of a 777 I've ever seen, it was amazing how fast she got off the ground! Unfortunately I've had a slow aviation year but this was definitely the highlight, granted I don't photograph something amazing tomorrow in HKG.
