The Flagship Detroit Foundation's Beautiful ex AA DC-3 is returning to NYC next week to make AA Station visits at JFK, LGA, and EWR.

Bascally this will be a repeat of last year and unfortunately the DC-3 will only be accessible to airport employees, and possibly departing passengers in the AA Concourses at JFK and EWR as last year it parked on AA gates their whereas at LGA it inside the AA Hangar. At all 3 airports a brief sightseeing flight will be offered (for AA employees) which means the 3 will make 2 landings and takeoff's from all 3 airports. I don't have a detailed schedule but will post what I know/
Mon Oct 13th; Ferry in to JFK, I assume late afternoon arrival.
Tues Oct 14th; JFK station visit. Will make sightseeing flight mid day and will ferry to LGA late afternoon.
Wed Oct 15th: LGA station visit. Will make sightseeing flight mid day and will ferry to EWR late afternoon.
Thur Oct 16th EWR station visit. Will make sightseeing flight mid day and ferry out. Here is a little more info.

And finally a word about membership.

The lowest price membership fee of $100 includes flying on any ferry or re-positioning flights. Anotherwords current members should be allowed on the flights from JFK-LGA and LGA-EWR. Sure is tempting isn't it ?
AA777 (who has flown on this bird) feel free to make any additions or corrections to my information.
