good stuff jbluflyermatt. Someone also sent me a pic of a Turkish Gulfstream landing JFK this afternoon. I looked but could not find what head of states/prime ministers are coming and when they're speaking

[Zee71]

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get a shot of the Turkish Gulfstream

[ANITIX87]

Was wondering when this thread would appear! Great information as always! I assume, when you have them, you'll populate with ETA/ETD?

What's the best way to find/track these things? Is it as cumbersome as using the tracking sites and clicking on every freaking plane to see what it is?

[Zee71]

Antonis .... I’m just scanning FlightRadar and OpenADSB

[MarioFL]

Very nice shots. One has to be looking at the trackers or be at the airport. I know people who are in the know of what's scheduled (never 100% reliable either, a delegation could end up sending a different plane) but don't like to give out the info.. funny but whatever

Cuba's new president/dictator is upset about the expulsion of the 2 diplomats/spies, said wasn't coming so we could cross the Cubana IL96 off the list this year.

[EDIT 748 is QATAR, landed 22L at 12:45pm NY time, 4:45pm UTC]

I'm wondering if the Ecuatorial Guinea dictator will use the Ceiba 777 like in the past, or that new funky looking private 777 he has now?

[eric8669]

FR24 was showing an unknown 748 just inside Canadian airspace, could be the new Turkish 748

I'm wondering if the Ecuatorial Guinea dictator will use the Ceiba 777 like in the past, or that new funky looking private 777 he has now?

That 747-8 is the Qatar.

Can you estimate ETA if they're coming to JFK? I assume they'll get slotted in to the normal Euro arrivals. Never been happier for a runway closure at JFK, since it's forcing 22s.

You guys up there must be loving it. I don't know if there's ever been these many nice days in a row in the NY area at this time of the year... and with such an easy runway config. (not that usual 13L/22s nightmare split) This weather/runway pattern combo is very unusual

[jbluflyermatt]

HERE is this year's speakers list: https://www.un.org/en/ga/info/meetings/74schedule.shtml

[moose135]

Is anyone out shooting this stuff? It would be nice to see some photos this year. I miss not being in NY for UN Week...

[MarioFL]

Thanks for the speaker's list and for the updates. Yes this forum used to be active a looong time ago with many people posting pics (sometimes repeat stuff that got annoying). Now it's the opposite, it's dead. Not sure what happened but there's a ton of posts with 0 replies. Maybe this forum went the way of the Dodo due to social media plus unfriendly, extremely nerdy users (there were too many of those and most of them don't take pics anymore so nobody is missing them). As for myself, not on Zuckerbook/Globalistbook so glad this thread exists. Sorry back to the updates :biggrin:

[megatop412]

[MarioFL]

In today's debates (Wednesday) there are some head of states/ministers that I don't think have come in yet, Equatorial Guinea for example, unless they came in an anonymous small bizjet or something - not the norm for them.


2010L:

Looks like a lot of people are already getting the heck outta here

This has to be a record of so many leaving at the end of the first day of the main debate, while this year's session is just starting. Not surprised with all the globalist-sponsored garbage agendas the UN is pushing. Looks like they came in just out of obligation

[MarkLawrence]

In case the shots I posted last night are not visible, please feel free to click the Dropshots link below. Would love to see others' shots as well, Mark had a few nice ones up in the beginning :)

WESTSTAR Malaysia 767 does anyone know what country it was operating for? Malaysia brought an A320 so I'm wondering if that 767 flew for another delegation. / Nice shots man!

Not too sure on that one. Based on their track history, they came from Dubai World Central via London. Maybe they operated for UAE this year? I don't recall tracking any UAE jets come in this year

[jbluflyermatt]

2110L:
Current Atlantic crossings: 2-TSSA (Weststar 762), Hungary, Czech Republic, Turkey A400, Kuwait GLF6 9K-GGB

Russia came into JFK a few hours ago, just took off and headed back to Moscow

yea nterestingly none of those Dubai Air Wing aircraft came this year and they are usually present. Could have been the UAE delegation but with such a varied fleet it seems strange they would lease a foreign jet

[PhilDernerJr]

That's a wild list! I would kill to have seen that Fokker F-28!!

[Speedbird1]

Thanks for posting the list. It must have been very time-consuming. We here are grateful.I do believe that China sent no delegation this year in response to the economic tariffs; if wrong just post. Of course, sadly no Cubana as well.

[Speedbird1]

I also would die to see the Indian jumbo. UN Week is surely over; they re-opened the GAT.

No problem! Actually, I was filling it out throughout the week as stuff was coming in, so it really wasn't time consuming. I wish we had the Cubana come back this year!

[MarioFL]

what is GAT?
Thank you Jbluflyermatt who took his time to follow and post all these movements and even included a list at the end, and thanks to everyone else who posted valuable info including Springbok with planes coming out of Africa. Thank you all for keeping the UN thread tradition alive.

A number of delegations/aircraft which have come in the past were absent this year. Vietnam was another, and it came last year at night, unfortunately some of the more interesting planes can come at night. This year almost everything came in during daylight and saw a good number of new aircraft; some hadn't been seen in a while, like the Djibouti Falcon 7

[springbok]

I don't think VP-CKH was UN related, it came into Bedford from Farnborough then to White Plains and is still there.
P4-BFY was from Luanda to Teteboro and same route back so must have a connection to the Angolan delegates.

[jbluflyermatt]

One of the ramp guys up at Stewart posted a picture of A6-PFE (UAE B789), and it was indeed from this year. Guess they snuck in on us. Wonder what the Weststar was then...

That's true, I'll remove CKH from the list. I'm not too sure on BFY. Angola used Royal Jet's BBJ, so I'm not exactly sure what that one was. Maybe not UN related.

No problem, Mario! Listen... I reserve that weekend as UN Weekend for me. I keep my eyes glued on the radar(s) all day, and sometimes I'll be at the airports watching stuff come in too.

I went up to NY the last two years for a few planes on my list but skipped it this time :biggrin:

Here are the UN catches from this year. Other photos from the week will eventually make their way up on Flickr as well.

Great stuff, Ryan! Thanks for posting! Looks like you got some really interesting shots.

[MarkLawrence]

That is an outstanding set of stuff!!!

[jbluflyermatt]

Mark your calendars... the General Debate for next year starts on Tuesday the 22nd of September, which means UN Weekend will be the 19th and 20th!

[jerslice]

Hot set of photos! That IL-96 is something else.

[jbluflyermatt]

Well, I would actually consider TODAY to be the last day of UNGA. The Emir of Kuwait was in the hospital here in New York the past few weeks, and he wasn’t able to fly home. He’s finally going back today. Kuwait’s 748 is currently at JFK, expected to leave within an hour as KUG001.

[megatop412]

Excellent shots Ryan! I thought we would go the whole time without any Russian metal and the Il-96 shows up right at the end. Too cool
