You know what goes here!
Ok I will start this up. This BBJ is so new no photos of her yet on JP or the Blue site, was in LGA twice last week. It just replaced its Corporate owners Gulfstream G-450 with the same reg, VP-CAE, and she is track-able on flight aware. Below photo was actually taken at BFI after a transcon from LGA.

I like the unique Font for the Reg, tail could use something (anything).
Cheers LGA777
Cool I'll look out for him.
After an unbelievable approach to LGA over ground zero and up the spine of Manhattan earlier this evening, I saw a United 757 parked at the gate. I thought United,s LGA service was down to just Airbus aircraft. Who gets the 757 service??
Delta operated a total of 5 753 departures (3 actual aircraft) at LGA on Feb 6, 2 to IND and 3 from IND bringing VERY Happy New York Giants fans home from the Super Bowl. Here are a few of my shots.

Also Delta has started operating in the last few weeks at least 5 of their new (used) MD-90's that are ex SAS, Nordic Express & Blue 1 and they are running several a day thru LGA ironically mostly on Florida routes (I believe this is temporary). Here is N933DN on Feb 5. Note the lack of engine/APU exhaust stains common to most DL MD-90's as this one had just entered service 11 days earlier.

just saw one of these rolling down 31, not sure on which ship it was or the callsign....

USA (United States Army) UC-35 aka Cessna Citation just landed on runway 4.
Army 1994, a C-37B just landed on runway 4.
DAL MD90 landed on 22 a few minutes ago. USAF C-32 is parked next to N757AF.
Can anyone confirm if Jackie Chan's Legacy is still at LGA? N688JC shows landing LGA on 2/21 and no movement since. It's possible he may have had it blocked since then, however if not, this would be a VERY colorful catch for someone.
It's worth it if it's there. Really sharp paint scheme.
Yep it is parked over at Five Towers. Sharp looking E135.
Besides the Zero-G B727-200 parked at Five Towers, a Miami Air B737-800 was parked close to the ARFF station while refueling.
Flight info here: http://www.helloflight.com/Flight/BSK637.cfm
Looks like the Zero G 727 is scheduled to fly on Mar 31 (Saturday), according to their website they still have 2 seats left for the bargain price of just under $5000.00 USD although after taxes its $5197.50. No departure time posted but in the past they usually depart around 1000-1100AM in case anyone wants to try and grab a departure shot which is free.
AAL386 used 767-300ER with winglets today, just arrived at LGA.
Does this qualify as a Special Visitor even though it didn't land? I think it still does.

I think so, Ron - a very special visitor!
First time in LGA that I am aware of Omni Air 757-200 N639AX operating for Spirit with their call sign as NK 171 their 1530 departure to FLL.
In my work CRS computer that flight shows operating with 73H equipment Mon-Thur this week so I am wondering if Spirit was planning sub service with Miami Air or Sun Country and at the last minute they got the Omni 75 instead, regardless something out of the ordinary can be expected the next 3 days May 22-24 on NK 180 arriving 1433 and NK 171 departing LGA at 1530.
That was not all, my favorite BBJ N888TY departed and 2 private Jetstream 31's departed one behind the other in identical boring schemes.
Have not seen an Air Canada A-321 here in a few months today I saw 3 all equipment subs.
Fun day at the office
LGA777
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I was listening to LGA tower at work today and around 2:45p there was someone with the callsign Lima 5 I believe, then at 3:30 Lima 7 was spoken too once or twice.. Anyone know who/what that was?
I believe this was the 1st WestJet flight into LGA this morning, around 8:30 while stuck in traffic on GCP I had a perfect view in front of me while she landed on 4
Kaz yes that was first (since 2004 anyway). Those little 600's look pretty odd as not used to seeing them and several of their departures today took off (from 13) like rockets, I guess the 600 is a little rocket. Despite the so-so weather Westjet seemed to have a pretty smooth first day of ops here.
I know what to chase the next time i come down..
Really good day at the office today (July 2) Special Scheme wise. Highlight was an Air Canada 763 in the Star Alliance scheme, first time I have ever seen a Star scheme Wide Body at LGA. Also the United Retro A-320, jetBlue NY Jets A-320, and Southwests Maryland One. The last two had to hold for a gate so Ground was nice enough to parade them right in front of the office in both directions, NICE !
Cheers

After several weeks of maintenance, N757AF is on his way home:
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N757AF
2 F16s ( if I'm correct ) just went right over my roof at the house in Whitestone with their landing gear down towards expressway visual. Anyone know why they are in the area?
Gotta say it was a pretty damn cool site to see that right over my house ! Too bad my camera bag was inside
If you want a very unique and awesome photo op, go to LGA. Trump's former 727 just arrived! VP-BDJ is there. Same colors, but with "weststar" titles that are still gold, with a different tail logo.
Would be wild if anyone got a pic of the 727 next to the 757.
That would have been me out there but im back upstate now grrrrrr!
Luckily I have one shot of Trumps 727 approaching 22 at LGA 3 year ago!

Finnair E-170 OH-LEL which has been in the US for a few months on lease to the Honeywell Corp just departed 31 at LGA for I believe the longest nonstop flight ever for an E-JET from LGA to KDVT Deer Valley Airport near Phoenix.
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/F...630Z/KLGA/KDVT
Despite the distance was airborne in about 4000 feet of runway, impressive. I know Moose got shots of this bird in CLT, anyone else shot it around the US the last few months?
Cheers

It came here to Philly about 6 weeks ago. Paul got it both arriving and departing:cool:
Zero G 727 just passed my house going into LGA WITHIN 5 MINS!
http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/v...ps515b1ce8.png Here's a crude pic off my video camera it is all I had with me at the time.
I noticed on flightradar24 last night, inbound Delta 777 to LGA. Is this normal?
