I'll be up this weekend visiting some friends and we are also looking to do some spotting at JFK. Anyone else up for some COLD weather spotting?

Hi Steven

Always up for spotting no matter what ! I think Sunday looks like a better day, tom seems to be nothing but clouds, but hey it can always change.

My friend Dan and I went out to the Mounds...saw someone there and for the life of me can't remember his name. We left after like twenty minutes to check out 13L arrivals - BEST MOVE OF THE DAY. Aside from being thigh deep in the snow, I managed to get some AMAZING video of the Emirates A380 coming in to land on 13L!

I was out and about on Saturday. Not the best light by any means, but the sun did poke out for a tad. Here are some of my catches for the day.

BAM!! that China Eastern... well, what they said ;-)

So, no 13L A380 shots? You know it landed 13L because [I] wasn;t there... always remember to thank me when that happens ROTFL

Nice grab on the China Eastern jet....I watched her come in from a different perspective.

Thanks gents! During the afternoon they split runway departures/arrivals to the 13s and arrivals to 22L. I wish I had a little more reach (like another 100mm to 200mm). I ended up cropping the original image. I was surprised when I saw the flock of birds when I zoomed into the image during post processing.
