I don't know whether it was as windy in NYC as it was in Washington today - steady at 28kts, gusting up to 45kts. Winds were out of the west, so Dulles was using the unusual "1R circle to 30" approach which allows for some great banking photos. I have a lot of shots of such approaches, but today brought something rare - a little "test flight" of the Saudi Arabian 747SP HZ-AIJ that has been hanging around Dulles for over a month. Anyway, clouds covered most of the approach, but I did manage to get one sunny shot that left me smiling. Enjoy, and a Happy New Year to all! :D
