I didn't realize it was as rare compared to the A310 though I love both.

Gorgeous shot there Mario, I thought that A310 wasn't too rare at JFK?

Royal Jordanian used to bring a freighter A310 to JFK, I guess they don't anymore?

The A310 is by far more rare than the B747F

**Iberia A340-600** · 2009-09-16, 06:45 PM

The A310 no longer operates for Emirates Sky Cargo.

How about the RJ A310 @ JFK?

Oddly that Emirates A310 showed up at FLL at least twice that I know of, coming from JFK. One time I could have gotten it but was too lazy after having the 744 already to drive the 20 minutes from Miami. I guess I should've gone.

JFK used to get a TNT 757, guess not anymore? I wonder if anything rare ever shows up cargo-wise at JFK these days.

I believe the TNT 757 was operating for Icelandair Cargo. I haven't seen the RJ A310 in a while but I know they still are around as I saw one as recently as July at Heathrow. In terms of rare cargo-wise... There was the Arrow Air 757 earlier this week and last night the DC-10 and some other odd ball stuff shows up at the wee hours of night I'm sure.
