I the wx is nice, I'll be out at some NYC airport tomorrow. Anyone else up for some spotting?
I'll probably head out tomorrow morning, JFK vs. LGA will be a gametime decision.
We'll see how the WX is and the runways are. If it looks good I might take a drive out.
With the amount of spotting I plan on doing this coming week with the airshow, I have to get the house in order tomorrow. 7 days 'til the Airshow!
Dam John....I didn't realize next week was Memorial Day Weekend already...God does time fly by..Quote:

I'd very much like to do some spotting tomorrow, but I'm not at all optimistic about the weather...

Some of the stories he shared with me would make the hair of anybody reading the spotter blotter curl. I hope to run into him again sometime.

Damn...interesting guy to meet there Kenny! He has some amazing old shots! A Vickers Vanguard and a Viscount in AC colors???..WOW! Amazing old shots there! I bet he really does have some stories to tell!! BTW...good shots as well!! :)
What's with the boats? I know it's an active channel, but I thought you couldn't "hang around" that close to the airport. I see guys docked there fishing, have the restrictions changed?
Wow, I love that NAA shot! Would you be able to send or post a wallpaper-size version?
Nice shots, Kenny! Looks like you made good use of the brief bit of good weather this morning. I've run into John Toomey a few times - a really nice guy with some amazing photos! And John, I think with those boats, as long as you are outside the signs (and you know, don't have a camera :wink: ) no one will bother you.
Kenny, the Cathay shot with the boats is great, as well as the Saudi Cargo. I would really be into getting a shot of that someday. Sorry I could not make it out today, but I will be out soon. Later, Brian
