I'll be around this weekend. Can't believe I missed the Dreamlifter today, AGAIN
Is there anything good up at SWF?
Don't forget perfect light too!Quote:

How many Dreamlifters does Atlas currently operate? I only ever saw the one in MIA leave once in the 6 months I was there (and there were two of them there another time), but I feel like one makes an appearance at JFK relatively often.
TIS
There are a total of 4 DreamLifters I believe
Zimbabwe 1 heavy (Z-WPE) on final to 4R.
Zimbabwe 001 just landed 4R
BTW I am using hash tags #nycaviation and #unga on twitter for updates from the field
N767KS showing on Planefinder lining up for the 4's at JFK.
767 767KS now on final
N767KS departed a few minutes ago...
JFK is now on a 13L/R / 22L/R split
so it has begun! YAY! And looks like some pretty spotting wx this weekend!
Wait a minute. I spent the last three days waiting and nothing shows up and the moment I took a break Zimbabwe shows up? Guys you are forcing me to cuss here. That was second on my hit list after Iran. My return to JFK tomorrow night will be assessed before hitting the road. I wonder what else will escape between now and Saturday morning.
A new Prime Minister for Ethiopia will be sworn in tomorrow and he is expected to hit the road shortly after the ceremony. I am thinking early Saturday morning arrival.
EWR today had Gainjet 757, HZ-WBT7, HZ-102, and 2 non descript BBJ's not sure of regs and I didn't recognize. Also non UN N888TY
Fasil, ask him to wait til Sunday, please :smile: I can't make it this Saturday :frown:
Dude, stay off this thread if you can't make it out on Saturday. I'm already having nightmares about tomorrow let alone Saturday. What could possibly can I miss?Quote:

2 Marine helicopters inbound from Sandy Hook.
Tupolev 204 RA-64010 flew Russia-Ireland yesterday and Prokhorov is in Brooklyn opening tue arena today. Did that Tupolev show up at EWR overnight?
3 more Marine helps just checked in
I think he flew into EWR on MRBUS this morning
Just had Presidential practice landing at JRB. 2x VH3, 3x CH46. Heading back to JFK now.
We watched them raise one hell of a dust cloud from BayswaterQuote:

my first catch.

Heading out now. Should be near JFK in an hour or so. 04L/22R is closed, so they're on the 13s. Winds should be strong from the South all day today (~20MPH). I hope they eventually go to 22. Where should I go to shoot 13 arrivals? Mark, want to open your yard to us???? Haha.
TIS
Tis, they seem to be on 13 exclusive at this time.
Mark and I have used this spot successfully in the past...

i was out early this morning. 13's in the morning is awesome. The light was great.
taking a break now, will be back out shortly.
Thanks for the tip Manny.
I ended up going to "the spot" you guys use for night stuff, if you get my drift.
Weather is clearing, light is getting really good, but I want another runway configuration!!
TIS
Dang foiled again!!! :mad: Thanks.Quote:
