I roll up at JFK at around 0830, dial up ATIS only to hear they are using 4's. Not looking forward to freezing my arse off at Bayswater, I do a drive by through the terminal only to find CX's World City 773 at the gate. The spotting gods and the luck of the Irish were on my side as they switched to 31's where they remained for a good part of the day.

What, was Aer Lingus taking the holiday off? No green shamrock birds on St. Patrick's Day?
Great shots, Kenny!

Thanks guys. Brian you crack me up man. Mat, if you're this excited over the pic, I only wish you could've been there. It was a great day to be out.

Nice shots with CX World City 773 shots and I love the Omni DC-10 shot which I saw one take off on March 16th in the evening.. (the night before) just before I left to head back to the Bronx

Very nice shots, Kenny. Great catch with the Omni and Virgin revised scheme, I'm still chasing after that A340.

Man I miss JFK spotting, I haven't been for 2 months or so. I was planning on this Saturday but looks like weather will be foul.

Nobody can compare to what you've gotten abroad. That is some good work you've done Gordon!
