But with it being at Islip there's pretty much no chance of getting near it right?
When they stopped at FRG a few years back, they opened it to the public. They had some school groups and such taking tours, but the general public was able to go on board as well.Quote:

Cool shots!
I registered also but still haven't heard anything yet about Monday at ISP also??
FYI- Just saw this link on the NWS Twitter and it looks like that after you register all you have to do
is just show up on Monday between 2:30 - 5:00 at the parking lot indicated below on the ISP Map.

I didn't hear anything either after signing up but figured i'd just head over and see what happens but good to know. And saw the tweet too, looks like the WC-130 will be there!
I never received anything from them and turned out had something come up that day. Did anyone go?
I only took a few shots. For the C-130 I had to clone out a tripod that a media individual put smack in the middle and it was an eye sore.

You didn't have to wait to hear from them. A lot of people were confused by that but all you had to do was register which was weir because no one stopped you to check if you did. I went but after standing on line for about 45 minutes and only moved about 10 feet i had to leave.Quote:

Just didn't work out on making it.
I didn't receive anything back either, but I got to ISP around 3-ish give or take. The line was pretty short at that time. So I was able to quickly get a few shots before it got too crowded.
