Take your pick.
Mine is LGA, since we're getting nonstop flights to LGA in February.
The question is directed toward airports that serve NYC with Scheduled Commerical Airline Service.

It's JFK for me. JFK was the first airport I ever took-off from, so it holds a special place in my heart. Not to mention, the take-off and landing patterns from there are so cool! LGA would probably be number two for me, but not by that much.
Hey FRG isn't up there.
So I guess I"ll go with JFK.
Stewart Airport is being transformed into an NYC airport. It is operating under ownership of the Port Authority...that is why I designated it in such a way.
FRG is not up there because it does not have airline service.
FBF.

know what you mean by not considering SWF a NYC Airport considering its distance from the rest of the NYC airports but it is part of the Port Authority. Again one could argue that Teterbero is also a Port Authority airport which doesn't mean sh*t since it is definitely not an NYC airport.
True, but it does take a lot of charters and business flights.Quote:

I think the only NYC airport I've ever been to is SWF. Although on my way into New York a few months ago, I did get a shot of a Fedex MD-11 approaching Newark and an S-76 approaching Teterboro (I was hoping it was 76DT, but it wasn't :x I think it was PAPD)
:lol:

LaGuardia but I think we all knew I would say that anyways. :borat: :borat: :borat:

favorite in terms of what? Traveling out of? Or spotting/photography? The fact that you excluded FRG further drives my question :oops:
>FRG is not up there because it does not have airline service<
Well if I really want to nitpick there are only TWO NYC airports. The rest are out of the city.
Maybe you should have said "Tri-State Airports".
BTW FRG for me because of (course) the heavy helo traffic, corporate jets and lots of military
visitors AND only 20 minutes from my house.
> an S-76 approaching Teterboro (I was hoping it was 76DT, but it wasn't :x I think it was PAPD)<
You can usually tell if it was PAPD or even NJSPD 76 since they have the Nightsun and FLIR
hooked up and are light in color. And Trumps 76, well hard to miss with the big red TRUMP on
the side!! LOL!!

Uh make that WHITE Trump. I should know as I took a picture of it years ago.....

Remember when he had the Super Puma?
Wow, this thread careened out of control in a hurry :)
Well for me its ISP, simply because its so close to my house. Just an example I can leave my house at 2:30 get to the airport, check my bag, get cleared and be at the gate by 2:50, how can you beat that? However for most of my flights I have to say JFK over LGA.
