LGA on St Patricks Day

[NoGreenBox]

A beautiful afternoon at LGA with the normal visitors, but some runway excitement. In about two hours aircraft were landing 31, runway 4, back to 31, then finally on 22. It must have been quite the day for the controllers. The driving back and forth was fun enough!

anyway, here's some of the best of today..

1. Mesaba as Us Airways Express inbound to Runway 31

5. One of the Runway 4 departures, a Shuttle A319. They were doing everything off of 4 at this point, I should have taken a photo of the very impressive taxi line. At least one aircraft (also a DL A319 got a little close too soon and had to go around)
