Gordon,
Can you confirm the reg. of the Moroccan BBJ. It looks like CN-ROL to me but I just want to be sure.
Thanks!

The Republic of Argentina 757-200 just touched down on 31R. (8:30) The Qatar Amiri A340-200 is parked on a T4 hardstand as well.
Mark, the registration is CN-MVI.
Thanks Gordon!
Not sure who arrived about 9:10am but it's a 747-400, reg id V8-ALl. It was sitting by the hangers. Will post image later.
Mark, that would be the Royal Sultan of Brunei's 747-400. It's due to park at SWF.
Kinda mugly.
Hey Mark
Nice to hear from ya, I enjoyed JFK and meeting all of you immensely, I am marking my calender to be down to JFK on a yearly basis from now on for UN Week. This was fun. Kelli:smile:
Great capture of the 747.....darn dog made me miss that departure shot. Here are mine from today. I just caught the Ykpaiha, it came in at 6:45pm on 13L just as I uploading my photo's. Not sure of the Falcon biz jet, but it was not in the norm.

The TFR is in effect from 1830L to 1930L
Safe to say that the Ukrainian A319 means we will probably never see their IL-62 again? :(
Referring to AF1 and its standby:
I've always wondered:
Why send the standby to SWF? I would think if it was "on standby" at Andrews, it would save a lot of issues (and maybe even some tax dollars) with regard to security and crew staffing.
In an emergency, how much longer is the flying time from ADW-NY as opposed to SWF-NY?
Great stuff guys, since i live about 17 miles from SWF i could not get a lift over there to get some shots.. Shame!! I did manage to see the Chiliean Air Force Boeing 767-300 on downwind, couldnt be able to grab it..
I believe in an event of an emergency or problem with AF1 at JFK and the President was in the city they would helicopter him up to Stewart. Quick flight time and the plane would be ready to roll as soon as Marine 1 had wheels down.
From Downtown Heliport to SWF - 48.4 Nautical miles
From SWF to JFK - 53.9 Nautical miles
From ADW to JFK - 179.8 nautical miles
BTW how was the weather tonite on the South Shore by JFK? It looked like a marine layer had rolled in at least out here on LI. Thanks.
Here are some from today.

And one notable non VIP. A380 on the go around due to foggy conditions. One of many.

I think this was my best shot from HoBe!

Aargh; was hoping to see the Azeri at Stewart tomorrow on my TEB-SWF-HPN-JFK loop. With west winds forecast, JFK would be arriving on 31R and 22L?
Here my captures for the day (Friday), unfortunately the weather was not the best (fog and haze for a good part of the day). I tried to salvage what I could with some heavy duty post processing. By the way, the Japan took off around 7:15pm (well after sunset).

Although this is a unrelated UN Assembly aircraft I caught this guy in the cargo area while passing the triple hangers.

Nice shots, Mark! It was good shooting with you this week.
I heard from Eric. He went down to HoBe after Kids Day, and it sounds like he got the Iraqi A300!
Ok. Here are mine from today.

That Iraqi catch is stunning Eric!!!
Outstanding, Eric! Glad you were able to catch the Iraqi.
Great catches Eric from both airports. I can almost here the sweet sound of the 707 departing !
Eric, super catches!!! Ditto on the Iraqi.
Does anyone know if anything will be going on tomorrow (Sunday)? By the way, Sunday is the annual Columbus Day parade in Howard Beach. I believe the parade starts around 1230-ish. If you plan on doing any spotting tomorrow from HoBe, get there early, because Cross Bay Blvd will be traffic hell...........spotters you have been forewarned!
Here's another that I caught today........Uganda gulf stream

Eric, the Iraqi AND the Czecd bird. Oh my goodnesss. Immaculate!!
You just took the best pic o that Czech plane yet. I have yet to see that jet.
I have missed the week but look forward to the warp up thread.
Great shots. Interesting door config on the Iraq A300. Side note, couldnt make out any markings but just prior to sunset a white A310 was approaching 31R over the casa. Couldnt ID it
Good seeing everyone at Kids Day and JFK today! I'll just post one for now:

I caught the Uganda yesterday (Sat) morning at HoBe. I don't know where they staged it, but it departed from JFK. Not a great image because of the overcast.
Iraq Airbus A300 returning to JFK on Saturday afternoon.

Kudos to everyone that was able to put in the long hours for the 2010 fest.... Cary, Conrad, Moose, Eric D, Mark, Jacob and of course, Senga.
I trust everyone got to shoot something good.... :smile:
