Awesome photo and find Luke, thanks for sharing. When I used to live right by the ILS for 4 at LGA (corner of 25th Ave and 78th street) aircraft where at about 200 feet over the house. Sometimes while watching aircraft land from the yard many 757 and 767 arrivals had wing vortecs so strong that maybe 20 seconds after the aircraft passed overhead it would actually blow leaves off trees. Every time I witnessed that I was simply in awe !

Cheers
