JFK 3-12-2011

I happened to be in the area this afternoon and was lucky enough to stop and catch the Air France A380 landing at JFK. Now maybe my luck will change and I can catch the Luftansa.

Thanks. it is my favorite that comes into JFK. First time I shot it was back in 08 and then two days later I flew on it.

Ah, the Cathay scheme that actually looks good! Nice catch Eric

Who does that 738 belonjg to? It looks like it is in some sort of Czech Republic scheme but is registered to Aeromexico

Spent my afternoon at JFK, was surprised nobody else was out and about. Temps were in the mid 50's, and aside from a nasty cloud bank between 1 & 2pm it was a beautiful and PRODUCTIVE day.
A few specials, and some new schemes that I can cross off my list.

Eva Air Cargo started my day

Nice catches..........especially of the Cathay "Silver Bullet" Cargo and the Finn's. I was out briefly in the morning at North Woodmere. I'll post some shot's later tonight.

[steve1840]

I knew I should have come down! I could have gotten Manny's Finn MD-11 and a few things I've never seen before.

[gonzalu]

Wow John, nice set... I decided to chance it today instead of yesterday (have to pay back at home LOL) and now the nasty clouds are here... looks like yesterday was a better day cloud wise. The NCA I have been after and never caught and Silver Bullet I have in various back lit situations ha!

I imagine NCA and Asiana Cargo will be busy for some time ferrying supplies to Japan... I have been glued to NHK all day and night and I don't speak Japanese!
