JFK 12/10 Review

[Winglets747]

Great day at JFK. Weather wasn't too cold or windy.

I didn't see anyone else out, but Costco was completely full of cars.

After I saw Saturday's IAD pics, I thought how funny it would be if G-VRED came into JFK today. Well...

RED is less than two months old

I probably won't be spotting again in NYC until January, so this was a great way to end the year!

Great shots Will, I'm glad someone finally caught G-VRED at JFK! I'm taking a guess she came in as VS 3 around 12:10?

I'm also glad you caught the Air Jamaica A340-300, I haven't seen her in a while.

I called ATIS just for the heck of it to see what runway config was in use and was upset to hear that the 31's were in use as they never seem to be when I'm down at JFK.

Glad you had a great day, hope next Monday will be just as nice for me!

Dang, they are really loading on the A340's down there aren't they? :lol:

Darn it; I wish I was out today. :(

Will how did the sight of the VS make you feel? "Yes finally!" (pure euphoria) or nice "it's a VS but an A346?" Really nice stuff man!

RED came in at 12:46 yesterday afternoon. I guess it was VS3, but that would make her about an hour late.

Have a good time at JFK next Monday, and please do give us a trip report of Spain when you get a chance.

Haha. I have no hatred for Airbus planes. I was actually quite pleased to see a VS 346 (in new colors no less!) since I've seen VS 74s and 343s. Yesterday's 346 new colors easily makes up for not seeing VS that Friday a few weeks ago.

Hello Will, nice shots! First off, thanks so much for the directions to JFK spots via MTA. I did not make it out this weekend, but hope to soon. I did go to Laguardia and will post some of my photos soon. Thanks again for the info and maybe I will run into you out there.
