Here's what VP-BDJ looks like now:

Here is my last shot of VP-BDJ taken in the rain on May 20, sure wish I could have gotten a better shot in the revised scheme. Very hard to see in any of the photos but their is a very small Malaysian flag right behind the cockpit windows. I am sure going to miss this old girl at LGA but equally excited about her replacement Boeing. Cheers LGA777

N757AF enroute to LGA ETA 1805L from BQK if anyone can grab it, I am not at work today.

Unblocked, thoughtfully. Though if the BARR thing goes through I suppose it would have been anyway.
It looks like they're in a holding pattern over North Carolina right now.
I like the colors! Unique but preserving some of the old livery. At least the plane will still be flying, somewhere.
New ETA 1905 after multiple holds.

And the 757 is finally enroute to LGA

Did anyone get any shots when it arrived around 7?
Like him or not, he has groovy taste in jets and the color schemes are smart!

I think it's gorgeous and a great replacement for the very-missed 727. Was great to see her touchdown at LGA for the first time (in Trump colors at least).
Here are my first two shots, much better ones to come when she starts flying.

Didn't Trump make a nasty remark about LGA not too long ago? If he feels that LGA is so bad, why does he store his 757 there? Maybe storage rates are cheaper for LGA as it's a fact that he's a cheapskate!
Speedbird1, Mr Trumps recent negative public comments about LGA where pertaining to the Central Terminal Building, which he does not use for his aircraft, it is remote parked so not really relative. He uses LGA because of it's proximity to Manhattan, the same reason many business travelers do.
N757AF left LGA around 4pm today for IAD, heading back tonight.

On Flight Aware, what does the letter designation after the aircraft type mean? I noticed it has been B752/Q, B752/L and is now B752/J.
The "J" refers to the navigation equipment that the aircraft is approved and capable of performing.
/J /E With RVSM
/E Flight Management System (FMS) with DME/DME and IRU position updating
Dont listen to anything he says. He likes to hear himself talk.Quote:

Drove on GCP yesterday at 4PM, noticed Trump's new jet was inline for take off at runway 4. It looks like EMB-170 from behind the fence.
Little off with the type....I would do a search on Trump on this forum ;)
About to say those two planes look about as much alike as Michael Moore and Maria Sharapova.Quote:

Just filed a flight plan to ISP from LGA, leaving in a few mins.
Thanks to a 31 departure got a few so-so shots, will post tonight or tomorrow AM, since he would normally take the S76 for a flight of that length either showing off the airplane or picking somebody up and heading further. We all have our own personal taste when it comes to schemes but damn that plane is purty. By the way as he approached the end of the line on Bravo to depart 31 he transitioned to Alpa to bypass the 4 or 5 mainly Delta aircraft in line, it was like watching Air Force 2 depart !
Not my best work but here are two of mine from yesterday.

Looking forward to seeing this bird fly a lot out of my home airport.

That is so EPIC! The Donald knows how to travel!
It's been at ISP for a few days. I wonder if it will be based out of there instead of LGA.
Chris102, I hope and am pretty sure not. Both prior to and after the r/t to IAD the 75 was parked in the exact same spot where the 72 sat and from seeing it up close from the employee parking lot it fit fine. The whole point of LGA is it so close. I would think TEB (If a 75 is allowed) or HPN or even FRG would be closer. Maybe their are some mods being done to the aircraft out their, all I can think of.
Here is a shot of her today at KISP

Still there Thursday afternoon...

He's departing ISP around 3:30 this afternoon back to LGA:

I wonder if Mr. Trump has weekend out of the area plans somewhere and needs his new airplane meaning a LGA departure as well?
well she's home again, looks like the crew is still getting used to the way the new airplane flies. the approach was flown very nose-high and they bounced her twice before getting the spoilers to deploy and settle on her mains.
