Tamon,

Thanks on behalf of all of us here in NY for the continued updates.

It's making our lives a lot easier in being there at the right time whenever possible!

Agreed, Thanks for the heads up Tamon.
Its too bad, our friend from Iran dissapointed us.
Unless he came shortly after 6:00 when I left, he was a no-show today.
I know that's not your fault Tamon, I was just saying, that was one I was looking forward to catching.

Beautiful weather today, and a great crowd. The runway changes kept us on our toes, although the arrivals were a bit lighter than last year - hopefully we'll get a bunch Monday. Here are some of my highlights:

French Air Force A310



C-5A out of Stewart, with support equipment for POTUS' visit.



Uganda Goverment Gulfstream IV



MEA A332



Qatar Amiri Flight A332



Royal Jet B737-700 BBJ



Comlux Aviation A319



Tamon, thanks for the updates on the arrivals!

Nice shots Moose, I'm about to look through mine now. I swung by EWR on my way home and there was a few Mexican biz jets along with the MD-80 Tamon mentioned. I just check the trackers and MAF2 is enroute which is a Mexican Air Force G3.

Great set Moose. It looks like I missed Comlux as I was waiting at the bus stop. Here are my set for UN week. Thanks to Tamon for the info.

Great shots guys! Of course I am very jealous, as is the case every September. Did the Iran Air SP show up?

NIce shots all.


Sorry, I was on the road, about to head in and I just didn't feel up to it. I was troubleshooting some new wiring installation that I put it.

So after driving toward JFK for 5 minutes , I turned around and went home. I guess I just didnt have it in me to leave the job unfinished.


I look forward to the catches I missed.
Thanks all.

I was grabbing a bite to eat in the terminal around 19:45 when I saw the Iran tail taxing.
