I think I scared those out there as they have never seen me express that level of emotion :) This aircraft has a good chance to be my shot of the year.

Maybe heat exhaustion? :lol: Not sure how it was by JFK but I was up in Cold Spring Harbor for my daughters
soccer game and it was blazing!!
Great shots but now we have this idiot in town along with other idiot(s) planting car bombs!! Fun City indeed!! :)

Wonderful stuff everyone! Glad the conditions were so good.
Bonus blurry photo of Mr. Ahmadenijad himself:

Certainly was a very eventful day. Great to see everyone and of course the special guest, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. I stuck around to see the motorcade leave the triple hangars, pretty exciting!

Your contribution is great, but the same as the guy before and the guy afterwards (to my eyes they look exactly the same) but yes the 707 is :shock:Quote:

Gotham were you trying to get him waving to the spotters on the plane close up? (he shut the windows, no success) and then limo (success?) 8)
LMAO!Quote:

Can't help the fact that there was 16 of us standing side-by-side at the mounds for the arrival!Quote:

Some GREAT photos here and I'm glad you got it. And I love the new cartoon Senga!
Gotham, your pic didnt work because his limo has a flux capacitor on it that instant;y blurs autofocuses of cameras nearby ;)
I may seriously have to ask one or 2 of you for a framed pic. Some great wide shots of smoke there too! Well done!
Oh yeah, any group shots? And who was in hte resting chair?
Thanks Mario,
I don't think you guys know how thrilled I am to get that plane :)
I am glad you liked the satire :)
I consider myself a pretty serious person and my source of humor is very thin. I didn't know Ii anyone would find humor in it- glad some did.
BTW:
Something else that I noticed when the plane was pulling in front of the triple hangers was they cut the engines off well before the plane came to a stop. It rolled like 50 feet and then stopped. I found this a bit unusual.

I feel sad now.... I missed my opportunity to improve my ISP shots :( Well time to wait a very long time again
This was wild. After this, I'm really thinking about switching to video. These photos we all got almost do NOTHING for the experience of hearing that plane pass us. What a sound. I was pretty blown away.
My second favorite part was the smoke. I was watching with binoculars at the stream of smoke. I always wish I was born 20-30 years sooner, and that's why!
Here's one of my shots.

Glad I got to share the experience with so many people!!! Big thanks to Mario for the heads up! None of this would have happened without him.
As of 3PM it wasnt at hanger 3. I doubt i'll have any contribution :cry:
Phil,I know, when I was a kid in the 60's and 70's the sheer scream from those 1st generation jets was mind blowing,now imagine that every 90 seconds from am till late night,that was life under the Canarsie approach during my carefree youth !!! what runway by the way ?Quote:

I remember just the 80s near LGA....widebodies, DC-9s, 727s, and I know that was still nothing compared to the previous two decades.
The only good thing to come out of Iran was that 707.
Anyone know the call sign of this flight?
Now the question is when is it leaving? Thats my last shot at it.Quote:

Phil,
Check out these Iranian screamers. Same Stage II sets as you heard last night.
I am sure now you can see why I am so obsessed with experiencing as many of these old schoolers as I can. Hearing those engines brings tears to my eyes :)
