JFK today (11/24/06)

[SP-LPB]

31's are in use so Will and I are heading out at around 12 or 1 so if anyone is free be sure to drop by Costco.

Today was great--no clouds, blue sky.

Jacob and I meet Ken, a newcomer, as well as two other spotters who took some photos but were mostly there to see the planes (they are not on NYC Aviation, but know Senga).

Big catch was Turkish 330:

Also had a nice visit from LOT 763 Star Alliance:

Finally, the winter sun provided for some great light at the end of the day:

Glad you got to meet Ken.

Some of those shots are GREAT. You guys had some great light today.

Great shots, I love the Iberia and the American A300 shots!

Hey all, it was a marvelous day out. We got to meet Ken and two fellow spotters with whom we had a nice conversation. Great traffic in the later hours. I'm looking over my pics so there will be some soon. I uploaded two to a.net, hate being a newbie on it, only a 2 picture limit. Here they are:

If things get real bad there is always the last resort; WAW. :wink:

[tipek]

In the last 2 years I spent 4 days at WAW and I still didn't catch this 767!!! To make things worst, I didn't see any of the 2 Star Alliance E-170s while at WAW!!! At least I've got 737-500 in SA cs. But still, I need that 767 :)
