Saw a news article that said following POTUS visit to Scranton on Wednesday, he is scheduled to visit NYC that evening, so I imagine the C-17 is bringing advance equipment to JFK.
WEll just getting home to my to do list... BUt a great day.
So that is the second time I've seen a c17 inbound to JFK to the 22s. Last time time was on my way home from my sons bris. That telltale knife edge bank is unmistakeable for the c17.
We were out all day but I was happy enough to see that.
WEll on the way home, the Etihad F1 was overhead. Again, anohter that I've never caught (not that I've been out spotting in a while) but a beautiful jet.
If the meetup that Phil is planning gets moved to Wednesday it would be an awesome end to the day to catch AF1Quote:

2x Jet2 charters due in to EWR from the UK Thursday mid-morning. Check Flightaware for exact times once they get airborne. If previous patterns hold, will likely stay until Sunday, and return back to England with quite a few shopping bags in the hold.

What's the deal with the chartered flights from England to come here for shopping? Is stuff that much cheaper here?Quote:

Oh yeah.....that makes sense. Think I would have an chance to see any traffic like this on Sat at JFK? I haven't seen anything extra listed on Flightstats or Flightaware, but I assume that they don't necissarily show up this far in advance on those sites.Quote:

Confirm G-LSAB and G-LSAE on the parking area to the south of terminal A. Nothing else of note.
Anyone get AF1?
Pair of Jet2 charters due to EWR tomorrow morning/early-afternoon. Check Flightaware once airborne. Believe this is the last of the trips for this year.
Today's KLM 77W is SKYTEAM colors PH-BVD.

What a reward eric congratulation if this is the first time you photographed it. I tried to get a last minute deal DCA LGA unsuccessfully when I found it around 9am.
Thanks. Nope, not the first time. I've shot it before. Actually the first time I shot it, it did a go around so I got to shoot it twice.Quote:

Don;t you know that Eric has special powers when it comes to JFK? Well, Zee71 has his own sorcerer status but it is a close call :tongue:
I got that Turkish bird in LAX on Saturday, really made my day!
Senegal 727-200 6V-AEF should be headed towards EWR.

Unfortunately, cr@p lighting.
Oh how sweet it is... although it brings back bad memories of my hunt for the 747 Asia where each time I saw her it was cloudy and muddy light lol. Let's hope for better chances with this one
Cary, did you see how AWESOME the day ended? So much for WX forecasts!!!
Nice shot Cary!
I'm trying to keep track of the Asia fleet (much more interesting than actual work) the other one painted so far is PH-BQI.
