    AA A300 at LGA?

    I thought I saw an Americna A300 from across the water, taxiing around at about 5:35pm.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Nothing on Flightaware, but it could be wrong.

    Phil,

    I did some searching and couldnt find anything. Any shot of one being there would mean it was inbound or outbound to MIA and all the MIA flights I checked were normal. There was an AA 757 that arrived at the gate at 546 from MIA last night so it could have been what you saw. If brakes locked at 546 then theres a good chance it was taxing around at 535.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Wow, me wearing Art's glasses. I'v never seen that pic before. Damn. lol

    I was driving near my house and caught a glimpse of what I thought might have been an A300. It looked largecompared to the other planes and the top of the body went straight back along the tail, as opposed to what Boeing's usually do.

    Oh well. Wishful thinking.
