Went out to DCA (Gravelly Point) when I was visiting my brother last week. Borrowed his nifty 250 because I only brought a short lens down.
...

Decided to go out today because 1) I haven't been spotting for a long time and 2) wanted to check out the Mounds and Bayswater - both of which I've never been. Went to the Mounds first, nothing doing...

Wow, nice job. I've been away awhile shooting studio stuff and some NASCAR but I decided that it was time to spot again and I went to "the" site and found this. Holy ch*t!

Hmm, interesting. I'm still happy with my 40D, I think more MP doesn't make that big a difference to me. The camera I'd like to see them upgrade is the 5D.

Looks like they're on 22s this morning. I might head out in the afternoon as I'll be in Queens to visit my dad.

Went to Firestone on Saturday afternoon after dropping my sister off for her B6 flight. Unfortunately, the 31R arrivals had significant cloud backdrop.

Thanks Senga for the map. As it turns out, many of those locations are heavily patrolled by security, police, vigilant employees or all of the above. Had one encounter with the police (see the...

Wouldn't you know my first encounter with law enforcement would be when I'm doing some spotting as a traveler.

I got a late start (6:45pm) and was really just pre-scouting places before doing my...

Am in Chicago for work this week and staying the weekend. Anyone know where to spot in and around ORD? I found this http://chicagoaps.tripod.com/caps/id16.html online but wondering if there are more...

Q33 bus from the 74th St-Roosevelt Ave station on the E,F,G,R,V,7 lines will take you to Planeview Park. Just take the bus until you reach 23rd Ave. You can tell because the bus will pass a bus depot...

Found this flyer. Doesn't seem that it's going to be as involved as the one in Tuxedo. http://www.aviatorsports.com/download/r ... .16.08.pdf

Doh, I don't get out of work until 5pm at the earliest and even then couldn't get out to JFK until after you're long gone.

Looking at Google Maps, it looks like either the Long Term Lot station (Lefferts) or Federal Circle would work. I've never been on the AirTrain via the Howard Beach station so I don't know about the...

Me too. I've been staying in doing too much studio photography and not enough spotting.

That's so sad to see the 720 get destroyed by a backhoe.

What a bunch of crybabies! I grew up in Fresh Meadows which I think is the approach for 31 back before the days of 727 hush kits and the noise isn't that bad. And I wasn't a spotter back then so it...

There's something to be said about the threatening the use of force and its effects on diplomacy's level of efficacy. Also, plans are just plans and there's are likely lots of plans on Pentagon...

That's a statement that you cannot back up with any fact. Certainly other aircraft types have blown tires on take-off and the aircraft hasn't ruptured fuel tanks and crashed like the Concorde did.

Trip out to SF for work IT summit.

No TV but I pick seats with power ports and I'm bringing DVDs.

Both legs on Delta are 737. I did a quick search on Virgin reviews and it doesn't look good. Sounds like the TV doesn't work much of the time. I also priced the itinerary and it was at the high end...

Yeah. I've flown B6. Not bad but their loyalty programme is not great at all.

Curious about Virgin but miles are miles.

I'm going to be in SF on business at the end of March and am in the process of booking flights.

Has anyone flown on Delta from JFK-SFO recently? Delta used to advertise seatback TV on their...

Thanks for all the information!

Hi, am going to be in the DC/Northern VA area visiting my brother next weekend. As he lives in Arlington, I will definitely want to spot at DCA (Gravely Point?) and possibly at IAD. I did a search...
