[AA 777]

Here at the pics I've promised....

Heres the DC9 going around after having an AA MD80 still rolling on 4


Landing on 31 after going around the go around


Air Force Two. No matter when they come they ensure that they land on the back lit runway! Too bad it wasnt the 757! Sharp plane though!


Cheney should be in here somewhere!


After only being in New York for an hour Air Force Two is seen departing 31


Cleanest DC9 Ive ever seen!


Enjoy

While I was driving to LGA today on the Grand Central in front of LGA a private 727 took off. It had winglets and it was a -200. Maybe LGA777 and crew got a better view of it departing 13...

When I arrived in the LGA employee parking lot at about 0430 this morning I noticed a primarily white wingletted 727 but it was nosed towards me, and looked like Peter Nygards which I assumed it was. But then late morning noticed it line for takeoff on 13 and realized it was this -200 !



Arrived the night before from Fargo (FSD) and departed for the long flight to SWF using a Ryan callsign.

I saw the aircraft depart about an hour ago, I believe it was heading for SWF. Nice looking bird!

The same flight was in SWF last week and I couldn't tell what 727 was operating the flight, I assume it was the same.

a bit lacking in the details department compared to my other posts but today wasn't that bad a day for GA movements. we had a sabreliner depart, it made a nice long and shallow takeoff roll and climb. there's a G-IIB sitting by 5 towers alongside a nice avanti. we also noticed at least 2 citation Xs and a few more falcon 900s. while i was walking to my truck in the lot i was passed overhead by an all-black S-76. it had to be at least a C model, was too quiet to be anything else. i did notice a dark blue wing-type painting on the aft fuselage but could make out no tail number. was another nice quiet day, but i'm still glad i left early!

Miami Air 737 just landed on 4. N753MA is the reg and it looks like the old Miami Heat plane less the titles.

It took the Blue Jays back to Toronto.

i'm surprised that no one posted this, but N727PN has been sitting parked next to VP-BDJ for the past week. on a similiar note, the APU is running and the rear stairs down on VP-BDJ so maybe we'll have a nice loud and powerful departure to watch later on today.

Just had a helo over by the five towers call the tower and ask to send the trucks out to see if his gear was down. It was interesting to see the whole crash and rescue crew come out to look at the helo...not something we see every day....

727PN is still here, as is VP-BDJ. i'm starting to think that she may be having mx troubles seeing as it's been almsot 2 weeks now that she hasn't moved.
N742PS spent the night here in LGA, as did C-FFWN. (AC's 65th aniv scheme.)

Actually after a few hours in BOS, LGA's resident 727 continued across the pond to an airport I have never even heard of, Stornoway Airport in Scotland.

I believe Mr. Trump is building a golf course over their.
