KJFK 11/24/2011 Thanksgiving Holiday Spotting

[CX777]

What a day! This was one of those days where we just enjoyed the spotting and 'clicked' few shots, not that it needed any attention. Whatever came our way got etched in image. Heres few quick ones....just cropped only to fit forum size.

Kaz, Mark, Joe was a pleasure to spend the morning and afternoon.

"Springbok 201" about to end the loooong journey (with AA 75 on the Right side )

Nice Shots. Sorry I missed you guys. I should be out most of the day tomorrow.

Wish I would have been able to head down and hang out with you guys and meet some new faces. Unfortunately I was tasked with the duties of cooking Thanksgiving dinner. Maybe next time....

And of course.....great shots. No doubt that JAL get the top prize.
