JFK special visitors 4/16/08

[SengaB]

Some are probably here for the Popes visit:

Italian Air Force A319 (MM62??)
South African Air Force 737-700 (ZS-RSA)
Titan 757-200 (G-ZAPX)
Korean Air (VIP Flight) KAL101 (HL7465)

I didn't bother to photograph them as I have shot them many times over.

ZS-RSA...ahhhh...President Mbeki is running away from the Zimbabwe issue again.. :shock: .. ohhhhh....did I say that????? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Senga,
Thanks for confirming the Titan as ZAPX. I caught this bad boy into ADW at 1728L as ZAP 25B.

I saw the Italian air force airbus, there was a whole precession with blacked out cars following it. There must have been about 10 limos and vans following it at a slow speed across the airport.

Anyone know when some of these VIP may be leaving? Will they remain at Kennedy or are they heading to other in area airports (such as visitors during U.N. week) while the Papa and entourage do their thing? It would be especially neat, in this case, to catch them landing again if these special visitors were to return to JFK. Hmm...
