AirtrafficController, glad you caught that very rare visitor, saw it once about 5-6 years ago when ASA briefly had a decent size LGA operation.

nobody seemed to notice that N727PN is sitting at 5 towers right now. she's been there since at least tuesday. c'mon guys, weak! :borat:
I saw her last night, I was just too tired to care about posting it. The USCG Challenger 604 is also there right now. Well, at least when I left last night. I am sure it is still there though.
Hank Aaron was here today as well as the scheduled CR9 for Comair. Also on another more personal note mr. Peel has returned to duty in the tower here! Welcome back Mr. Peel!
today's been a pretty good day for GA movements. we've had 4 gulfstreams, a citation excel, three lears, a baron, challenger 601 and even a falcon 20. does anyone know the reg of Mr. Bloomberg's falcon? this one came in and dropped someone off then turned right back around. reg was N1881Q.
That's registered to Taughannock Aviation, a charter outfit out of Ithica - http://www.flytac.com/N1881Q.phpQuote:

While the company may in fact have more than one plane that is at the Mayor's disposal, 47EG is a Falcon 900EX which is consistent with the Post's report last week that the Falcon 900 is what he uses for his personal travel. IIRC it's based at MMU.
N129QS paid a rare visit, departed to KPBI. very very very rare visitor! :borat: could this be trump's new ride?

N908DL was at LGA around 1230L, saw it on B taxiing to 13 from the DL terminal.
In additon to the DL NC MD88 Delta brought in N610DL, first time I have seen since recieving the new DL titles. Also had an AA 763 depart mid afternoon.

Steelers was in a few times the last few days and one of those visits yeilded a bird strike at 4,000 feet just south of Time Square at night. The best they can tell it was indeed a goose of some sort.
Spirit new colors was in and out a few times as was Allegheny. AA 75 with wingletts. There have been a few other specials the last few days but my memory is blah today.
10/28
Continental 737-300 w/ winglets just flew over my house.
Yesterday over half of the US East special livery fleet was in LGA with the Steelers getting an unexpected sleepover thanks to a dual gen. failure. She should be flying the DC shuttle today if all goes well. Delta also brought a new colors 757 in each day this week while twice it was Hank Aaron.
Earlier this morning the Hank Aaron 757 departed which leads me to assume that it overnighted in NY at some point after I wnet home last night. Comair brought their flying Crest tube CR7 in as well today. MiamiAir 738W has been here for a few days and 727PN has as well. It has been fairly slow in terms of specials today though.
Nice surprise at LGA this evening, N704X, DL 757 New Colors with winglets, we believe a LGA first. Spellman wanted to post this but he had to go home to change his shorts !

PSA 319 came in from DC and is headded for Charlotte in 9 minutes. A Delta 763 came in a little while ago and an AA 757-200 winglett equipped was in and out this morning so far.
Spirit new colors just left along with Delta new colors with wingletts and a Song 757 which is rare lately.
N31TR just rolled out on 22.
N31TR just departed 13, made a nice early turn while tucking away it's gear as it passed the US terminal. headed all the way to IAD this time, i'll be kicking myself all night for not bringing a camera. the conditions couldn't have been more perfect!
I saw that from the lot, pretty sweet looking when it took off.
Tuesday Nov 6th, my first sighting of N502NK, second Spirit A-319 in the new colors. Did not see one today but have seen six DL 757's with winglets between Friday and Monday, and they sure look nice.

Donalds inroute to the home nest! :borat:
Not only that but there is a emergency with an AA MD-80 being delt with on the 5 towers ramp. Ted is rolling out and a Spirit new colors was here earlier.
Delta colors with the bent wing treatment is here pushing out at the minute, steelers 319 was here and we were landing 13 again for about an hour and a half and just flipped it again. LGA has been busy busy busy today.
Friday 11-9, Trump departed after dark, another DL 757 NC with winglets after dark, and my highlight of the week (rare for LGA) a jetBlue E-190 operating a charter to MIA !
Cheers

Delta 757-200 NC with winglets was here today. I finished doing a shopping spree at the LGA collectibles and decided to watch some runway 4 action and saw her taxi in and start her take of roll. Some fellow with a camera ran from the hotel to get a shot of her.
Out of suspicion I spoke to a buddy in the DL Ramp Tower last night and as I suspected DL now has two ex TWA 757-231's complete with new colors and winglets scheduled into LGA every day, they do the 1500 and 2000 departures to ATL, arriving about 55-65 mins before !
Enjoy,
LGA777
I'm sitting here at gate D10 about to get the fly on back to Orlando and I can see Peter Nygards 727 over by the five towers looking good as always!
Indeed, she is quite sharp. Early this morning they were towing her around on the ramp at about 0400 when I was parking to come to work. Along with that I could swear that just before sunrise I saw a UAL 757 with the bent wings lifiting off 13 but I am sick and half awake today.
Good thing I'm not flying US today! :)Quote:

Delta 767-300 just landed at LGA at 11:04am
Another DL 763 this one an ER just landed a little bit ago. To add to that a USAF VC-9 landed about an hour and a half ago here. Quite a nice suprise indeed.

what we all somehow missed was N794AJ arriving today. she's parked in trump's spot by 5 tower. at least we've had A 727 at LGA lately.
