I will be visiting New York for a couple of days and was wondering whether anyone was planning on taking some photos on the 25th? I am a newbie to the area so feel a bit lost!!

I don't have anything on the calendar, and the weather doesn't look too bad (cold but sunny, NW winds). I would be up for some spotting and would be glad to meet up with you.
That would be great!! What airport would be your preference?
Actually, I will PM you.
Keep us posted on what you decide. :)
"Moose135" is going to meet me and take me to JFK somewhere. As I am a complete stranger to the area, I'll be going where he goes! Maybe he can elaborate here on where we will be.
oh goodness....you're getting in a car with Moose????....nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... :lol: :lol: Just kidding!! You have an excellent guide there!!
Yeah, lots of places to dump the body around JFK :wink:Quote:

Colin, I'm gonna miss you.
Friday is an office day and Saturday I have to orchestrate my son's first birthday. But if you plan on Sunday at all, maybe????
The weather forecast for Sunday isn't looking good, last time I checked...
Friday is my last day of exams, and I get out at 12:30. If I feel up for the drive, I'll try and get out that way (for the first time :)).
Actually Saturday is not looking great, Sunday looks promising.Quote:

I will be out either Saturday or Sunday.
Weather and girlfriend permitting I am going to be out there tomorrow for the morning prior to work.
Just an update - I plan to pick Colin at Jamaica around 9 - 9:30 and, assuming NW winds and Rwy 31, head out to HoBe for some morning departure shots, then probably head over to Firestone for arrivals later in the day. Feel free to call my cell if you are interested in meeting up at any point.
Hi guys,
Firstly thanks to Moose for the lovely day out! The weather was fantastic on friday although it was certainly very cold. Definately not what I am used to!!
Unfortunately it was a very brief visit to New York, and saturday morning I departed on the CX841 back to Hong Kong. These trips will be fairly frequent though, and I am definately looking forward to more spotting and hopefully meeting more of you!
Cheers,
Colin.
