    Josh you can count on 22 for arrivals all day and 31 for departures till at least sometime mid afternoon, when the wind turns around a little will dictate when we start departing 13, my guess is between 1500-1600. If we stay on 31 you could always try in the CTB above the CO gates.

    Josh, that shot is...awesome!! :shock: Great work.

    I'm trying to knock some work out of the way in the office so I can make it back to my area in time. I hope I can make it, all this stuff is pretty damn cool and I'd really hate to miss it while it's still a 'novelty' item.

    Ron, I agree...if need be, I will get a shot of N109UW from the CTB near the CO gates. I could get a shot of it taxiing in and then 45 minutes later a shot of it departing. I'd rather get it departing 13, though! :)

    Thanks, Brian. I really lucked out with the departing ERJ.

    I'll be hanging out at the usual spot inside the CTB for the 3pm arrival. I'll be ready for it to arrive a few minutes early, though, as it's only coming from DCA and was 15 minutes early this morning. Assuming that 31 is still the departure runway, I will still be at the same spot, but if they switch to 13 for departures I am going to head over to Monty's favorite spotting location: Officer Yum Bridge. Maybe I'll see some of you out this afternoon.

    US 2131 is enroute from BOS early ETA 1445 LCL.

    LGA is now departing 13 landing 22 changed at 1410 lcl
    50 mins earlier than I predicted, I guess I need more practice !

    I just got back home, Josh and I caught the it as it taxied to the terminal after its arrival, and then we went to the overpass over the Grand central for the 13 departure, where we met up with Eric.

    Weather was a lot better yesterday, not sure if my shot came out very good at all. I'll edit it soon.

    Had a run-in with NYPD detectives at the overpass. Looked like Harley guys in plain clothes, but very nice and cool cops. Fast and smooth and kind. Just how such encounters should be. NYPD has a great record of being courteous to us spotters. :)

    I think the new scheme is gorgeous.

    Nice shot Phil. Too bad that damn B6 was parked there. I hate when that happens.

    Thanks. Now, I'm no Mike McLaughlin, but my Photoshop skills are decent enough to make that JetBlue pushback early. ;)

    Here of two of my shots from Thursday

    http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=531573

    http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=531614

    As you can see the weather was just AMAZING !

    Had a really cool experience uploading these two photo's to JP.
    I checked Hot Photo then put in the screeners remarks "not sure
    if this still considered Hot, if it is Great, if not could you please leave
    it in the que for consideration". I uploaded The photo then went right
    to member section. No photo's in Que, how could that be, I went to
    my photo stats, the photo was already there. simply incredible, it
    was like 30 seconds. Decided to try again. Same hot photo comment,
    uploaded photo, went to bathroom, came back two mins later, photo was
    on database, just incredible. I love JetPhotos. Mean while over at
    a.net most of my photos from Tues morning in PHL where rejected
    except two that have been in screening since about 11:00 AM Tuesday
    morning 3 hours after I shot them even with a friendly, professional
    e-mail to the screeners. What a difference, thanks for letting me ramble !

    Cheers LGA777

    Beautiful shots Matt, it's pretty hard to beat that location, you are very fortunate to have that access. I have not heard your opinion yet on the scheme, thumbs up or down ?

    BTW guys a.net finally accepted one of my Philly shots, almost identical to MikePhotos's shot, I actually would have understood the bad double rejection but not most of the others.

    Cheers LGA777
