JFK Firestone 8/27 review

[AirtrafficController]

Went to Firestone today to enjoy the beautiful weather. Construction on the Panera Bread is underway. NCPD were conducting a checkpoint behind us. Nice to meet John and a American Airpower museum volunteer. A great day in terms of aircraft.


New one for me:

Wow, nice. There's a chance that might be the last Mexicana plane to fly into JFK.

Great shots! I also hope to see Mexicana back, always loved the baby buses and the paint scheme.

Great collection of shots Luke! Looks like nice weather and light! Can't wait to start getting the decent winter light in FL!

Nice Pictures. I think that was the last flight of those Mexicana Air... They are out here in Goodyear AZ.

Excellent!!! I was out spotting as well but I ended up shooting from Costco. I bumped into an individual from Switzerland who was there spotting as well. Here are a few captures (hopefully from a different perspective). Enjoy!

Awesome shots. Thats one thing I do hate about KPHX is that we never ever get birds like that well except the BA 747. Thanks for sharing.
