    Fedex/UPS Flights During the Day at JFK

    I was surprised when I looked up in the sky today at JFK and saw departures of both a FedEx 727 and a UPS 752.

    These aren't normal flights for these aircraft, are they? Bad enough the weather today sucked, but why can't I ever see these planes when I'm spotting?

    most ofthier flying is at night, but a lot of it happens during the day too.


    speaking of fedex and ****ty wx, does anyone have the link to that video of a flight tracker during a thunderstorm in mem?
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I need some filling in.

    What aircraft types are normal for FedEx and UPS to bring into JFK?

    I've seen 727s from both of them this week. I was wondering if that's normal or not.
