US New Colors to LGA Thur PM and twice Friday

US 2135 is enroute to LGA early ETA 1644.

Yankees won 6-2 game ended on time so the StarJet 727 should depart approx 1800L

LGA777

LGA now landing 22 still departing 13

Well the more I see the new US scheme the more I like it, I hope those of you that don't care for it will feel differently after a few times in person.

BTW the way US 2185 was airborne at 1810 and StarJet exactly 10 mins later.

A nice bonus was Air Canada's 4th new E-175 C-FEJC.

Hope some of you got to see her and more of you tomorrow.

Cheers LGA777

Got them both, pics in a bit.


Eric

Thanks Ron, Just as he said the aircraft departed 10 minutes apart.

Eric. GREAT Shots, today was a real double play. Got a nice shot of the 72 from the ramp just as she was lifting off, did so so with the A-320 departure but I think Matt and I got some GREAT ramp shots, the sky was so BLUE when she pushed back. Not sure why they both flew runway heading straight ahead with no right turn, perhaps due to US Open practice.Matt thanks for driving today !

Cheers LGA777

Hi Guys,

Thanks a lot for the information on N109UW. I've got it as it arrived at DCA earlier today at 7pm. Unfortunately the weather got really bad by the time it arrived. Anyway, thanks again! And here is my poor shot of it arriving at DCA on runway 19.

Rafal, it will be in DCA twice tomorrow morning,a 700 something arrival from BOS, 0800 departure to LGA, around an 1100A arrival from LGA (US 2169) departing to BOS at 1145. When it gets to BOS then down to LGA then the Shuttle flying is over. BTW your shot was pretty good.

LGA777

Eric, what great shots. I'm so jealous that you got a 727 at LGA.

Ron, good call on that 727 flight. You've put good thought into it and helped us out a lot. Thanks! :)

I was at McNeil Park in College Point this morning and I caught N109UW arriving on 22. It came in about 15 minutes early at approximately 8:45. The sky was pretty hazy, and the sun kept getting stuck behind clouds, but I think I got a nice shot. I didn't stick around for the departure since there is really no good spot for 31 departures (except in the terminal, but I didn't feel like going in there).

I may head back this afternoon for the second arrival of this plane.

Josh

Unfortunately I can't be out at the airport today. Yesterday evening I left helpdesk without anybody on duty ;)
I will go to PHL in about two weeks so maybe then I will catch it in nice sun.

Rafal

Ron, please post any more arrival/departure data if you can. I didn't get to the forums until it was too late yesterday and I cant make it out today.
Senga

Josh you got a great shot, got to be something of a record, from click of shuttle to JetPhoto's Database in about 90 minutes, way to go Josh !

I think this afternoons weather should be better. looking at the wx channel website the wind might change enough around departure time to switch to departing 13, they often change runways at 1500 so it may happen.

I decided to stay home this morning but working a swap today 1300-2130 so will get more shots of this afternoon's visit. After that don't think we will see her for a while.

Cheers LGA777

Senga I plan on it but she will not be a frequent visitor as we only have two A-320's a day (one arrives after dark) and 24 aircraft. Your best bet is to send out one of the clones to LGA this afternoon !

Wow, Ron, that really was fast!

Do you have any idea whether the arrival runway is forecasted to change this afternoon? It'd be great to have arrivals on 04! I'll cross my fingers that departures are switched to 13, too.
