How can they possibly use 4-22 with so many people so close to the runway? That's pretty dangerous. However, if 4-22 is in use while we're at Kids Day....all I can say is that people had better bring a lot of memory cards for their cameras! I may have to be escorted out by security after the event is over. :)
Michael, are you gonna be there?
I really believe the Port will change, I hope I am wrong but I predict 4-22 will be closed on the 24th. They may have more work to do on 13-31 but there is enough work that they can find something to do on 4-22 !

Hey great news guys, I AM COMING!!!
I cant wait to meet you all!
I am going to bring my piece of crap 35 mm SLR with 70 mm zoom. (who needs a zoom anyway at kids day ;-)).
If it 'aint Boeing, I 'aint goin'.
Hey Ron. I think they're going to use 4-22 and close 13-31.
Futterman sent me this link a while back: http://www.laguardiaairport.com/aviatio ... 05_aoa.pdf
The link shows the closures of each runway; the top bar shows 4-22 runway closures and the bottom bar shows 13-31 runway closures.
It looks like 13-31 should be closed Sept. 24; let's hope!
And Josh, I am gonna show up. Hope to see you there, as well as Phil and Ron.

fly.mcs,
Like Ron said, they will probably change that because of the proximity of the show to the runway.
I couldn't possibly imagine them sticking to that schedule. I don't think they took Kids Day into effect when making that schedule. I would not take it as bible.
Email me anytime at [email protected].
Yeah, maybe you guys are right.
Also, I just looked at a diagram of LGA on AirNav, and I had no idea the runway was that close to it!
I thought the Marine Air Terminal was closer to 13 than 4.

Do you think the weather will be good that day?
Has anyone goten a net shots from that event?
how far is the planespotting park from there?
Is the park in a bad neighbor hood
Hey 777heavy.
I'm not sure about the first two questions, but i have answers to the last two.
The planespotting park, aka Planeview Park, is walking distance from the Marine Air Terminal.
All you need to do is walk over the overpass and make a left. However, I'm not sure if LGA will be landing runway 4 that day, so planes might not go by that area.
The answer to your last question...nope. The neighborhood isn't a bad one.

Well keep your fingers crossed the long range forcast by NOAA looks fantastic, sunny, clear and 75! So bring your NYCAviation shirts, cameras, and prepare for a great time!!
There are some signs up for Kids Day in employee area's at work, they say the hours are 12-4, not 11-4 as we originally thought.
And while this could still change, here at US our plans are to have a 319 on Public Display !
I look forward to see many of you there !

ron, any chance it'll be a star alliance bird?
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
Anyone ever try to upload any of there shots to anet?
YES!!! Finally i know i will 100% be there!!! Anybody wanna carpool? Like Phil said, and i agree with him. We should do something after
I still think a BBQ is the best idea for after Kids Day. If we're gonna do something like that, we need to get an idea of how many people would show up so we can all chip in for the right amount of food, etc. We'd also need to figure out WHERE we'd have this little shindig.
