Thanks for the encouraging words guys - all of you. I am glad people enjoy the thread.

BelluccimanIt was NOT fun......it SUCKED, but it pays off in the end....spending that much time out- after a while you start to ponder things like why am I here the meaning of life and self introspection.... :)

Yes we would cause we have you :) If I recall I spend half the time hanging out with you in "the field" When I go you must carry the torch!

There had been a few I didn't shoot because I already had them. But I basically. But I guess Yes I basically got everything that came in under my watch.

Omar, I am crazy..glad someone finally is starting to realize that heee!!

It had been suggested that the PAPD isn't too keen on all these huge planes flying in. I noticed this year many of the larger planes have been replaced with smaller airliners and or corporate jets.

The Brunei was a lucky shot.. I was very happy to get that one. I thought it had left NYC 3 days ago.

Holy snappers! Some brilliant stuff there Senga. 8) 8)

Thanks MORS-,
I should have another goody posted by late Saturday :wink:
Not as good as the Sudanese IL-62 but will be great.

awesome work brother !, I look forward to the fall/winter '06/'07 ,and the return of our EWR overnights, so I can grab a crew car and do some good spotting on the old sod, in the meantime, this website keeps me current. The blue and white 727's are coming !!!!(starting in Oct. !)

I didn't think I had missed much as I thought about flying to JFK at the last minute and didn't.. but I was wrong!

The Zimbabwe 767 showed up again this year..That would have made the trip worthwhile all by itself. I wouldn't have been there for the IL62 or the Brunei, the other two I would have really loved to get since I already have the Tame. On that weekend I could have also gotten the MEA and the Qatar A340 but that's not all that rare (trying to console myself here) ;)

Jran225, Do you know if the LAB that goes to IAD is the one with the latest colors, (white tail) or the one in the same livery but with blue tail? or both..

I was shocked too to see the Zimbabwe 767 again.. a little disapointing being that I got it last year so it makes all my effort meaningless :(

The Tame comes a few times a year.

Heres my shot from IAD August 14th06 ..(white tial)
