    Thanks again!
    I saw the dream lifter over my house yesterday in Suffolk County, I would love to see that thing up close. Anyone see it? Is there any way to plan in advance to capture it?

    You can try to keep tabs on the Dreamlifter fleet by tracking the tail numbers via flightaware:

    Dreamlifter N780BA landed 3 weeks ago at JFK and is still sitting out on the apron at the end of W. Hangar Rd. in the cargo area. You can get a great up close look at her from the parking lot on the right side of the road at the very end. I took some shots from there today. I could almost clear the top of the fence from the sunroof of my SUV. I'll post some pics later.

    I wonder why Saturday's flight didn't show up. I saw it and also saw it identified on Flight radar.

    Dreamlifter N780BA at JFK yesterday afternoon. Back lit in the PM, so go in the AM if you can. Bring a wide angle lens.
    Damn- I could have cleared that fence completely if I stood on the roof of my truck. Didn't want to press my luck though.
