    AA Astrojet at LGA on 5/17

    It was my first time to caught AA Boeing 737 Astrojet at LGA on 5/17 at 17:00. I already have this one in Herpa Wing 1:500 diecast model. What a catch. :lol:

    Dave, I caught it also, must have been going to DFW as it used quite a bit of Runway departing 13, it was also here on the 16th, departed 13 around 1300 under very cloudy skies, will look forward to your photo.

    oh yea, i remember seeing that entering thier ramp. i was right on the corner of the D concourse with two of my lav agents watching them dump our lav carts. at least my view was better than their's.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Why oh why did it have to come during the week when I am at work! This is one of the few planes I am still waiting to see!!

    Just out of curiosity, was it operating the same flight each day, or different flights?

    Well, if you upload to JP, at least you know that I'll probably see it. :)

    she was here again on monday, or tuesday. i remember walking outside to pushback a flight and saw her rotating off of 13. that black under the cockpit windows really gives it away. anyone know how long it'll stay in that scheme?
