Getting home early from work today, anybody have any plans for JFK or LGA in the afternoon? Let me know!

Yup... I will definitely be at JFK, either HoBe or Bayswater, depending on where they are taking off (heavies)

So far, it looks like they have been using both 31L and 22R for takeoffs... mostly heavies on 22 but some are using 31L and feels like internationals are using the 22R. My goal today is the LCF taking off, if indeed it does. Hopefully BEFORE 6:05p ;-)

Zee71 also said he will be around...

Should be heading out shortly to HoBe for some 31L departures and probably the mounds in the afternoon for some 22 arrivals, and keep any eye on the LCF.

Cool. I'll try to make it out to the mounds for the evening. Hope to see ya'll there.

My problem is that I am technically still at work. Will I look ridiculously conspicuous in a suit? LOL... see you guys in a bit. Heading out to HoBe in a little bit.

I'll hopefully make it to the mounds around 4-5

Totally disappointed that the Dreamlifter went out so late in the evening (around 7:35pm) and to make it worse it departed on 4L while the remaining few waited in HoBe expecting a 31L departure. I couldn't see anything but thanks to Manny's keen eye I was able to get this shot from HoBe at an ISO of 10,000 in total darkness.
