Nice JFK Overview giving a nice view of the current conditions at AA's T8. I drove by their Friday and some of the last standing old concourse is starting to come down.

Note the Jet Airways 773 parked on an end gate and easily viewable from the roadway.

Cheers

Thanks for posting this Ron! One of the few overviews of the completed (take that with a grain of salt) terminal 8. The few times I've come into JFK in the afternoon the Jet 773 has always been on the same gate and is viewable from the road.

What Md-11 seems to be "cutting through" the AA terminals?

The Fin MD that's taxing between the landside and mid field terminals. Time for your yearly eye check up mate. ;)

Funny you should say that. I experienced my first ocular migrane on Thursday evening. Took me a few moments to diagnose it but I can see how disconcerting it can be for someone to get!

Anyhow, I was thinking it was the FinnAir but why taxi through and not around? Just the shortest distance between 2 points thought?

Finnair uses Terminal 8.

Fin always parks on the landside portion of T8. Only airlines that use T8 taxi through there.
