DL 737-700 N302DQ operated DL 790/795 ATL-LGA-ATL. This now appears to scheduled but on Tuesdays only, arrives 2010L, departs 2100L. Kind of odd this flight is no-op Sat, 738 Sunday, 757 Mon, 73G Tue, M80 Wed, and 757 Thur and Friday.
If the flights arrives on time their is just enough light for a landing shot!

Even though US Special Schemes are a common site at LGA we actually just had 4 at once, PSA and Allegheny, 1600 Shuttle departures to BOS and DCA, and Steelers and Panthers, 1700 departures to BOS and CLT.
Even though I see around 5 WN 737's a day at work 5 to 6 days a week I still have not seen one WN Special Scheme yet, very dissapointing.

LGA777
Are they the same registrations each day?
Nope, different every day Phil !Quote:

Well it took almost 3 weeks but we finally had a WN Special Scheme sighting, N713SW Shamu, not one of my favorites but at least it was different.

Delta upgraded one of their hourly ATL turns from the scheduled 757 to 763 N125DL in the new scheme.

Mel and I had lunch at MacNeil park in CP and saw the DL 767 on approach. Nice surprise.

Well looks like we just had our visitor of the week. Delta upgraded their 1400 757 to ATL to N839MH, a 767-432ER in the old scheme, She actually had some wing flex on departure. Thanks Delta

All DLs 764s are likely to be international by this coming month, hopefully LGA would get one more visit of a 764 on one of my free times.Quote:

And even their 777's get subbed into MCO regularly and saw a picture of one subbed into SJU last weekQuote:

N610DL, in all her pink glory, just landed. haven't seen her here in quite some time...
30 July
Worked a rare morning shift and picked a good one.

WN 73G N714CB, this is one of three WN birds in the old colors only Gold instead of Brown, really, really sharpe. Even had a Southwest Classic logo under the cockpit windows.

B6 A-320 N712JB. Never seen this one year old bus before. love the name, see below photo to read it.

The next three are as a result of the following days weather and massive delays.
AC A-321 C-GJWD F/N 457
DL 763 N127DL
AA 763 N361AA (Extra Section from ORD and return)
The inbound AA heavy taxied past the outbound DL heavy, sweet.
At US we had Piedmont and the Steelers schemes parked side by side, with Allegheny a few gates over.
1700L
DL 767-332 N127DL returned for a second time.
1745L
Sun Country 738 N806SY arrived from PHX bringing the Arizona Diamondbacks in for their series with the Mets. It departed 75 mins later for DFW. I am a fan of SY's scheme but I had never seen one before that was significantly faded and wow it looked bad. The blue on the fuselauge, the orange on the tail all badly faded. Very dissapointing !

A USMC C-9A (DC-9-30) made a noisy departure off 13. If anyone on here was at Citifield you probably saw and heard it, as it went right over the top.

I was at Citi Field and yes I saw it.Quote:

Both of todays special movements happened right after I started my shift. First I was admiring the prettiest new colored DL 757 I have seen so far, it was actually NW's N556NW winglet equipped and although repainted a few months ago it looked like it was last week. She hadn't even got completly past our buidling when a loud roar got my attention as VP-BDJ blasted off 13 for MIA, they did not retract the gear until Citfield. She has not flown since June.
The ILS 22 circle to land 13 was flown my entire shift and is so much fun to watch from our offices vantage point. Many, many crews did a GREAT job flying this unique approach today !

Southwest brightened up our day with the arrival of N781WN aka "New Mexico One"

This evening I saw an MD-80 flying low and level heading west well past LGA and I got a bit nervous...engine out? why isn't he climbing? WTF? And then I remembered the 22>13 approach they've been using.Quote:

N557NW Wingletted 757 in new DL scheme
1315L
C-FUJZ Jazz CRJ-705 (900) in Star Alliance livery, take a moment and think about that reg a for a moment. Kind of cool was a sharing the departure que with N829MD, Republic E-170 also in Star Alliance livery, rare to see two aircraft that size together in the scheme.
1550L
N134SL, Avantair Avanti departed 31 for the long flight to Teterboro.

N779JB, my first sighting of the jetBlue Real Soccer Special scheme, pretty sharpe !
1910L
N448WN, the "Spirit of Kitty Hawk" spent about 2 hours in line for takeoff due to weather between New York and Chicago. This bird represents about 1/3 of the WM aircraft I see at LGA, really faded blue section, and not very pretty IMO.
And last but not least starting about 8:00PM we had the worse case of gridlock I have seen in a while. The inbound operating my last BOS Shuttle took 65 mins from touchown to the gate. Had many others take 45 min to and hour to do the same.

WOW! go figure i missed out... my last arrival into SNS took me 2 minutes to taxi to the ramp, only because of the three citabrias in front of me. :wink:Quote:

N888TY arrived some time last night, the airplane is here and looks like the crew is walking around possibly getting ready to depart. makes me glad we're launching off of 31 today.
20 Aug

AA 1423 to MIA was upgraded to a 763 today, I believe the reg was N377AN, though not positive as we all know how hard AA regs can be to read and was going about 140-150 when it blew past me.
1915L
Highlight of the week for me as my favorite BBJ N888TY departed for homebase of KDPA just outside Chicago.
