it will be at the terminal

I'm guessing since the tour of the aircraft is from 2:30PM to 4:30PM that the aircraft will be arriving earlier than 2:30PM. If any of the people with connections at Republic could pass along the arrival time when it is known the much less informed like myself would greatly appriciate it.

Thanks,

Fred

News 12 traffic and weather is saying the weather is going to be bad but thats no stopping me, I will probably get there at 1:30PM.

Yea I just checked too, its showing showers for the Farmingdale area tomorrow. So I guess I'll sit this one out. Hope to see you guys during the Jones Beach weekend!

You should go because maybe a miracle will happen, its not like a hurricane is coming (you get the joke, right? :borat: ).

Is anyone else coming despite the showers?

[Derf]

I should be there

Any idea on the arrival time yet? Thanks.

I'll be there with my son. If you see a big dude wearing a Red Sox hat chasing a 2yr old that looks like his clone, say hello! :D

I got to Farmingdale around 12:30PM and she was on the ground already and school kids were getting tours as a field trip.

People were saying she arrived earlier in the morning and had been there for a while.

If anyone knows if they are staying the night and leaving tomorrow morning (what time ?? I'd love to get a shot of her in the air) or leaving today after the public open house from 2:30PM - 4:30PM could you please pass it along. Thanks.
