Headed out to JFK to catch some 31R arrivals. The skies were very clear, here are some of my favorite shots. Later, Brian

Nice shots, Brian.

I arrived around 10:30 am from MIA on 4L and noticed the really gorgeous weather. First time that i've seen Bayswater from the air!

Brian, it was great to meet you this afternoon. Your shots look great. I probably won't get to edit many of mine soon, unfortunately, but I think I will at least edit my pic of the Tradewinds Cargo 747 tomorrow when I get back to Arizona. I was really excited to see that arrival this morning.

Gordon, I was out at Bayswater this morning, but I don't think I was shooting many of the AA arrivals. I'll check my memory card when I get home tomorrow and will let you know if I have a shot of your arrival.

Thanks Josh, that'd be great. I definitely thought I saw a spotter out there which I'm guessing was you.

I believe I was on N40064...

Gordon, thanks for the comments. Josh, awesome to meet you too. Have a safe journey back to Arizona.

That blank 747-400F,,, is it a China Airlines Cargo?? Ive seen that plane a few times and I was not sure who this is but I recognize the Chinese registration #.. At first I thought that it would have been Atlas Air..

Yeah, it was me you saw, since I was the only one out there, and I was there from around 9am to 10:30am. Unfortunately, I didn't get a shot of your arrival.

By the way, I think your plane may have been the last to land on 4R before they switched to the 31s. After that, I headed to Firestone for the day.

After that, I headed to Firestone for the day.

Not before making a detour to...Howard Beach. :)
