Nice article, Ben. Couple of quick comments - Andrews is in Maryland; the Pakistani bizjet is a G450, and Yemen did bring their 747SP in 2012 - arrived about 10 minutes past dusk on the Monday. Where did you go to get that up-high perspective on the Pakistan at Stewart? Really easy to miss things on that ramp, and a view from not at ground level would be helpful.
Thanks for the feedback! I've made some corrections. :)
I'd love to say a helicopter, but there is a big hill to the west of the ramp overlooking everything. From one side you can get a shot of the runways and cargo ramp, from the other is the passenger terminal and parking ramp. The road is Hudson Valley Ave, and there's a map here. If I did it right, there should be blue dots along where there is a view from. Its a bit distant and there are lots of buildings and poles and wires in the way. You have to get out of the car and climb up the hill a little or find a dirt mound to stand on.Quote:
