    Upcoming U.N. arrival(s) you want the most!!

    Hi everyone,

    Since we, in the NY area, are due for some exciting visitors within the next few days, I thought a thread like this might be fun. What do you hope to see/shoot more than any visitors for this year's U.N. general assembly? Senga, feel free to refrain from answering :P

    Here are some planes I'd LOVE to get:

    Royal Brunei Airlines...A340-200
    Afriqiyah Airways...A340-200
    Republic of the Gambia... IL-62
    Azerbaijan... TU-154
    Slovakia.. TU-154

    Can we expect/hope to see any IL-96 visitors, out of curiosity???

    ciao ciao,

    - jMay

    I caught the Polish Tu-154 at a Giants game last year. I was excited. :P

    It's hard to take chances but sometimes it's better if you do

    I think Putin should surprise us all and come in on a Tu-144. I'm curious do the North Koreans visit NYC around this time? Are they members of the UN?

    According to the UN web site, both Koreas have been members since 1991. I don't really remember hearing anything about visits to the UN in the past.

    I'm not sure the N. Koreans have been to any UN events here in NYC. If they did it would be with the TU-154.

    They don't like their IL-62's?
