As most of you know Jon Proctor has recently started uploading some classics to JP with some wonderful results. Knowing he had some great classic LGA and as I feel lucky to call Jon a friend for many years I asked him to to please upload some of his LGA stuff. Well he actually uploaded quite a few LGA classics but this is by far my favorite, a pretty rare (for LGA) and beautiful visitor, Enjoy !

That is the outflow valve. It is used to control cabin pressure. In flight it will close but not all the way. It will regulate the pressure by opening and closing. On the ground it is wide open.

Jon has been uploading some of the most amazing shots of the past I've seen in awhile and you won't see them on A.net ;)
