So I get out of the LIRR at Hicksville and see that JFK is landing 22 at this time (5:30). Thats cool. Nice clear evening I
can check them out when I get home. I have good viewing in my backyard. So I'm sitting in my car ready for the light to change by 107/Woodbury Road at 5:40 when I look up to see an inbound jet WITH A SECOND RIGHT BEHIND HIM!! A little higher for sure but there wasnt a whole lot of distance between the two. They looked like a flight of two. I'm not exaggerating. Unfortunately the light changed and I had to drive so I couldnt see what was happening. Sure maybe there was enough altitude and distance between the two but you could have fooled me. They really shouldnt have been THAT close. And the first jet wasnt that high either, maybe 1500 feet!! Pretty wild stuff!!
And they're still coming over hot and heavy now!!
