29 August
while the FAA announced that they're going to be cutting GA slots from 6 to three per 3 in the near future there were quite a few corporate movements today. we had a Cessna Grand Caravan, Falcon 900, Falcon 200 and a couple of Lears. in terms of airline movements the only interesting airplanes were a DAL 763 which seemed to be on an equipment sub. a PDT DHC-8-300 made a fwe trips in and out of here today, also on an equipment sub. RPA also had thier 400th EMB-175 in the house today.
Air Canada A320 in 60th Anniversary c/s arrived this morning.

Pink Delta came into LGA today at about 9:45 AM today...I saw it fly overhead on the Expressway Visual approach when I was walking to the subway this morning on my way to work...
It was here twice, departed again around 2030 lcl, saw the lighted tail coming out of the alley, that is one pretty Airbus.Quote:

Anyone happen to see what took off this am about 7:45am? Looked like an F/A18 , definitely a fighter based on the roll he did as he climbed out.
it was a navy superbug, the single one ron saw arriving the other day. figures that i got there around 0800 this morning though. that's just the luck i have.Quote:

Glad you cleared that up for me, I figured it must have been some sort of fighter and at the time I was hoping it was here on good terms...I never hear any LGA traffic with my windows closed and my A/C on, but this thing sounded like a DC9 was taking off from my stoop.Quote:

That's Biden's plane.
Friday Sept 12th. When I came in mid-day there was a SAM (USAF) C-32 with Winglets on the Port Auth Police Ramp, the beauty departed 13 around 1400 using the callsign SAM 457.
