I saw a wingletted 727 on approach while driving near SWF around 3:15p today. It wasn't anything I recognized (and no titles that I could see), but I do remember it had a small bluish widget at the back of the tail. My best guess is it was something like: or Anyone know what it was?
Cary this beauty landed at JFK Friday so I am thinking this may be the one.

Ahh thanks, that could quite possibly be it. If only I had stopped at the airport to spot instead of going to a lighthouse instead :eek:Quote:

A light on the Hudson, before heading up past SWF :smile: Of course, I happened to drive past just as a rare 727 was on final.Quote:

Hmm...possibly, but I could have sworn it had a widget near the back of the tail, and the rest of the tail was white. Maybe the scheme has changed a little? Too bad all my cameras were in the trunk at the time.Quote:

I can only imagine what kind of gems are hidden in those massive hangars at SWF.
I saw this guy depart JFK, no shots of it though.
