    31's are in use so Will and I are heading out at around 12 or 1 so if anyone is free be sure to drop by Costco.

    Today was great--no clouds, blue sky.

    Jacob and I meet Ken, a newcomer, as well as two other spotters who took some photos but were mostly there to see the planes (they are not on NYC Aviation, but know Senga).

    Big catch was Turkish 330:


    Also had a nice visit from LOT 763 Star Alliance:


    and Kuwait 777


    Finally, the winter sun provided for some great light at the end of the day:

    P.S. Jacob--these were the birds I was telling you about that came in with Air Tahiti while you were at BK:

    Hey all, it was a marvelous day out. We got to meet Ken and two fellow spotters with whom we had a nice conversation. Great traffic in the later hours. I'm looking over my pics so there will be some soon. I uploaded two to a.net, hate being a newbie on it, only a 2 picture limit. Here they are:

    Those two LOT B763's that flew in came from WAW, weird. Nice grab though.

    I finally got a SWISS !! :D

    If things get real bad there is always the last resort; WAW.

    In the last 2 years I spent 4 days at WAW and I still didn't catch this 767!!! To make things worst, I didn't see any of the 2 Star Alliance E-170s while at WAW!!! At least I've got 737-500 in SA cs. But still, I need that 767 :)
