    Today's the Day: Southwest is Coming to Town

    :arrow: Counting Down to Southwest’s Arrival at LaGuardia!

    Notes:
    * Planes should arrive around 3pm, according to information in other threads
    * Runway 13/31 is closed for construction. Winds may be favorable for runway 4 to be in use, making the arrival visible from Planeview Park.
    * Click the link above for more info!

    There's an error in your link Matt. Loads the page and then bombs out.

    Sorry to be a bit off topic, but does anyone know if SW is going to bring only 73Gs or a mix of 733 and 73Gs??

    FYI, the Southwest people are expecting the flight to land at LGA at about 4:00 or 4:15.

    All the flights are scheduled to be -700's however there is always the option of MX or WX causing a swap out to a -300.

    Cripes. I think it's only happening in IE...is that what you're using? If so, which version? Anyone else having issues?

    Thanks!

    I think that will be the second flight. There is another flight coming from BWI.

    I think I have fixed it on our end. If you continue to have problems, please let me know. Also, updating to Flash 10 seems to eliminate it either way.

    My bad:

    SWA 8725 DAL-LGA is expected to arrive around 4:20pm.

    SWA 8726 BWI-LGA is expected to arrive around 7:00pm.

    I'm going to head over to Planeview soon for the first one.
