    Almost Daily? Dont give the FAA too much credit... It should just read daily ;)

    But I have also noticed the new colors at the MAT very frequently the past week....

    Delta brought in the 767-300 in new colors a couple of minutes ago

    Look like it's doing a few ATL-LGA-ATL runs, coming back ETA 4:44 pm.

    LGA777 did a long double shift on Friday 7-25 and it was Special Scheme day at LGA, Between 0500 and 2130 I saw the following starting with US.

    Allegheny A-319 4 Times
    Piedmont A-319 Twice
    PSA A-319 Once
    Steelers A-319 3 Times

    Air Canada A-320 "Symphony Of Voices" Had not seen this one in about 6 months.

    Air Tranica 717 Danica Patrick

    Not Special schemes but also saw:

    9 Out of 10 UA 757's where in the new colors, usually about 2 or 3 day.

    Private Beech 1900D in an Orange and White Scheme no titles.
    And speaking of Beechs both a Baron and Bonanza (straight tail) departed with in an hour or two of each other, pretty rare for LGA.

    All for today,

    LGA777

    it's been a nice and quiet saturday morning so far at LGA, especially since we're single runway. so far today we've been graced by the presence of:

    Spirit A321
    Citrus' Danica Patrick
    US Air's Piedmont, Panthers and Steelers schemes
    as well as the majority of American's bent-wing collection
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Trump's 727 made a heavy long and loud departure off 31 late this afternoon nonstop to LAS. Looked like almost full (landing config) flaps and actually built up power against the brakes. Was around 88F when they departed.

    A DL 763 just rolled past our office (830PM) headed for their gates.

    ron would be especially pleased with this, there have been about five AVANTAIR (VNR) movements so far today, both in and out of here. they fly the piaggio 180. that is one sleek and sexy airplane! aside from that we've had a very quiet afternoon.

    Two FA18's landed from VFA-32 off the Harry S. Truman this morning. They came in from NAS Oceana and will be departing back there sometime this afternoon. I'd say about 1630-1700L

    The two resident 721 boys are also parked at the five towers - Trump and Nygard

    5 August
    the navy go-fasts departed around 1700L, nice and low and nice and low.


    we've also had a pretty decent amount GA traffic including a Premier 1, King Air 350, Falcon 200, and other assorted small airplanes. peter nygard's 727 is now sporting a VP-*** registration too.

    AA777, glad you where there to catch the NW 757W, I personally have never seen one at LGA, perhaps due to their lower capacity and the fact that most of their 757´s are heavily booked in and out of LGA.

    Peter Nygard landed on 31 about 2145 Monday night. I had just punched out to start a short 5 day vacation and was walking across the ramp and heard (1st) then saw her touching down on 31. What a Beautiful sight and great way to start my break !
