    KJFK 4-18-12 Korean Air A380 Go-Around Low Pass

    I was sitting outside on the deck with my coffee this morning, only to look up and see the Korean Air A380 coming directly at me only at about 1000 feet or lower. She missed her approach to RY 4R and was on heading 150 climbing to 2000 feet. It. Was. AWESOME.

    Original approach to JFK


    After the go-around; ITS COMING RIGHT FOR US!












    And my first Sun Country shot


    I just like this one

    Thank you! It scared the crap out of me the first time, I had to do a double take when I saw it over the lake. For reference, I am located 2 miles north-east from the north end of runway 4R.
