    North American 757 at LGA

    I usually don't share this stuff, but I've been waiting for this for a long time.

    Today, a North American 757 will ferry from JFK to LGA and to operate a flight.

    It should leave JFK at 4:00, land at LGA at 4:30, and depart LGA at 5:30pm. It will be operating out of the Central Terminal.

    Nothing really secretive, but I'd rather not share much more at this time.

    SOMEONE GET A PIC!!

    Too bad it's oppressively dark today. :(

    Yeah, the light has been terrible since about noon...I was very tempted to take a "sick" day today and head out to the airport...I'm glad I didn't!

    I'm off this week so I didn't read the notifications. Was this a charter?

    While today was not the best day at all for pics, it would have been awesome to get a picture. Too bad I was off today :( Any word if it will bring the people it brought wherever back?

    It came back right away, doing an ATA LGA-MDW-LGA turn.

    Looks like the ferry flight was a solid 11 minutes long!



    Also looks like she returned to JFK, not LGA.

    Yeah Matt! I was going to look up the route this morning. That's exactly what I figured that would be.

    Phil, sorry to say due to the very poor light and a bad runway configuration for my location I did miss this. However somewhere I do I have slide of a North American 757 at LGA from 2000 wearing the below Special Scheme.

    Now I can blame North American for their hand in the stolen election of 2000!
