Well that's an interesting time frame to go spotting, especially when its cold and snowing! Nonetheless it's neat to see the 'midnight' shift shots of JFK, I'd really love to spend an evening driving around inside the airport perimeter checking such operations out.

Nice catch on the Avianca 757-200 with winglets, that's an ex-Ocean Air bird.

Its actually fun walking around there after midnight taking pictures with out no one bothering me one bit.

used to watch the Pan Am cargo 747s launch at 0 Dark 30 when I was a kid,and when I was a freight dog the back side of the clock was my home,I also remember Pan Am doing full power engines runs with the 707 in the 60's,(Maintenance),at 3am,and waking up the neighborhood....
