The 763 turned out to be an Omni charter

A few quick edits from SWF yesterday afternoon. Unfortunately, an area that was wide open last year right next to the fuel farm is now gated off. So there isn't much that has an unobstructed view now.

Spanish Air Force A310 and Falcon 900 were parked right next to each other at the entrance to the terminal area:

Also parked back there was Royal Air Maroc (CN-RNT, obstructed view), and this Libyan Falcon 900 (Thanks Mateo!):

Morocco also brought a C-130, parked on the other side of the passenger terminal:

Next to the C-130 was the South African 727 charter. The Congo 707, Iraq 737, and Chad 777 were all parked in that area with obstructed views:

The Belarus TU-154M was sitting just inside one of the gates to the GA ramp. Many thanks to the security guard who had no problems with me taking a picture.

The Gambia IL-62 was over there too, behind a couple NYSP helicopters:

Finally, you never know what's going to show up at SWF at any given time. I always have the scanner on when I'm there, so when I heard "<weird callsign, sounded like "Kuwaiti"> heavy, cleared for the option," i stopped what I was doing and made a beeline for a shot of the runway. At first I thought it was the State of Kuwait A340-500 that parked up there last year, but it was much better than that:

The Iraqi 77L was pretty visible but with lots of obstructions. The UAE 787 is parked right behind the Atlantic Aviation building, only the nose was visible. Niger was right next to it, out in the open but behind a tank. Several other BBJs were parked back by the fuel farm, but completely obstructed.

Thanks for sharing. Great job! Curious if you had to show any kind of credentials or IDs up at Stewart?

**Speedbird1** · 2014-09-24, 12:40 PM

JFK using 13L now approach. Saw a few interesting sights from my house. PIA 2 about 1220, and what looked like a USAF military a few minutes before and several others of interest. Had no binoculars and Flight Aware doesn't show military. Aircraft all backlit. Got the A388s': SIA, KAL and UAE as well.

Awesome shots so far guys! Senga, the Iraq 772 shots are great, nice light.

Tarom A310 (YR-LCB) parked at Atlantic (with a Dow CRJ taxing in).
Re-positioned from EWR yesterday evening as ROT8535.

Nice to see a passenger A310 still active.

Nice catch! Funny how close the tail logo design is to LOT Polish.

**PhilDernerJr** · 2014-09-24, 05:06 PM

Tarom A310. Unreal.

**Zee71** · 2014-09-24, 05:12 PM

Yeah i was wondering also!! Its been a long time since I've been up there but got stopped once by the MPs for taking pics of some Medevac Hueys!! Guy called it in, saw my kids and they let me slide!!
NYSPD have a base at Stewart.
Love the Egyptian C-130 shot and pretty cool that people got shots of AF1 AND AF2 same day (?). sweet!!
Great great selection of pictures all and excellent coverage!! And I guess hassle free for the most part? Dont see and ranting posts in Spotter Blotter

Just had the Mauritania BBJ pass overhead, sounded much louder than a 737 but per FR24 that's what it was! Looks to be heading for an Atlantic crossing, must have left as a live flight from SWF.
