Air Force One is expected at JFK Tuesday afternoon as President Obama visits for a few stops in Manhattan. He is expected to depart Tuesday night.
First TFR for Kennedy goes from 1330 to 1430 local, so chances are AF1 will arrive around then.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
I'm there!
But since I've never seen AF One before, does it usually use a particular runway, or does it follow the pattern applied to other aircrafts at the time?
its probably going to be 31R. I'll be out there.Originally Posted by RomNYC

Im all there. Its time to improve the one I have.
Oh man I wish I could be there with you guys for this!
Just out of curiosity, what does the Pres usually travel in when going to the smaller cities/airports? He's going to be up here in CT to visit the Coast Guard Academy in May and figure he'll arrive at the smaller airport (Groton/New London Airport). I'm thinking he would probably just arrive in one of the choppers when he's here?
Steve,
POTUS generally flies into GON when visiting the USCGA, the a motorcade from GON to the Academy. Bush's last trip here was on a C-32, not a VC-25, his previous trip to the USCGA was a VC-25 to BDL then the White Tops down to the Academy.
Guess I'll just have to keep wait and see whats going to happen as the date gets closer. Any way it happens, will be great to capture one of the Presidential A/C.
Wish I could be there, but work has me tied up. Maybe on the way home from work I'll pass by the field to catch a glimp of her. Any idea on the departure time??? Some thing tells me late in the evening.
They like 31R to end up at T3 where they can safely guard it and have plenty of room for the choppers etc. I am more curious about which of the two comes in. Last time it was the rarer ship...

JFK is currently landing 4R and departing 31L. I still expect AF1 to land 31R.

FYI, they were on the 4s on Saturday and cleared the C-17 (which actually was dropping off Obama's limo and other stuff for the Pres) to land 31L.
I'm at Costco right now. Fingers crossed for 31R.
Hedging my bets on 31R. Good luck everyone
