[mirrodie]

1:26 AM on Monday AM.

something loud flew over us. not sure what.

checked passur and only thing that seems to fit is a 742 but it doesnt seem to fly anywhere near us (melville/huntington)

thoughts?

NCA166 B742 Chicago Ohare Int'l (KORD) 11:04p CST 01:33a EST

PAC8303 B741 Mc Guire AFB (KWRI) 01:09a EST 01:25a EST

JBU117 A320 Buffalo Niagara Int'l (KBUF) 12:48a EST 01:24a EST

SOO672 B742 Newark/New York LibertyInt'l (KEWR) 01:11a EST 01:19a EST



I think I found them. Pretty wild, I mean its a relatively quiet night and looking at passur, it would appear they were in a holding pattern circling above in Melville.


in retrospect, Brian, when you called I also saw one above Melville around that time.

Of course, too bad we cant get them hanging in low and slow here in the middle of the day. figures! LOL

was wondering, that southern Air, does it always do a trip from EWR-JFK in the middle of the night?

THe route is seemed to take was EWR, south over Staten island, then northeast to hook a loop above us in Melville then West to land on the 4's.

that about sound right?

complete treats today too, lots of low arrivals all over Republic, too bad was too hazy.


Crazy haze! 2 hours delays at the airports??
