    Columbus Day

    Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone is interested in spotting tomorrow? It would be cool if we would get a nice group going. The weather is suppose to be good as well.

    Drop a line if you're planing anything.

    Chances are if 22 is in use 13L is in use to. Eric and I elected to spot 13L at the cargo area vs the mounds, you might want to give it a try. The light from 1:30 to sundown was perfect and the variety was a bit more interesting then the Euro birds.

    cargo plaza might be a good choice if its active. what is the number for JFK information? I'm also going to call Gordon (Iberia A340-600) and ask him where hes going, but we will most likely go to cargo plaza if active.

    JFK ATIS number is 1-718-995-8188 and runway 22L is in use rightnow. Watch for this to also include 13L within the next hour.

    I got out to JFK around 12:50 today and headed over to the mounds but the light was not good so I shifted over to 13L when it became in use but shifted back to the mounds because Cargo Plaza was not very active. Spent the rest of the time at the mounds until around 5 when Matt and I headed over to Bayswater for some departure shots.

    It was a pretty nice day out, sorry we didn't run into one else.

    My pics should be up soon, I'll post them in a new thread.
