Haven't seen much from LGA lately, so I decided to take the ride out. Only got about 90 mins in before the clouds overtook the field. Here are a few grabs:

This F900's pax were dropped off with police escort. (Was he done with the parade by noon?) You can see the clouds made for an overcast shot. :(

Nice work, John!

They were landing the 4's? Oh man, I love that pattern... only seem to have gotten it once while i was there... also nice is 22 departures!! A loaded MD-80 from 22 never disappoints... A320s are a bit boring by comparison! Nice job... heck nice job figuring out the one overhead... lol.

Hey John..........nice set! I think we must have just missed each other at LGA. I was at Plane View park as well, but had to leave at 10am. Will post some stuff later.

Planefinder is your friend Manny. Get it!

Nice catch on Bloomberg's Falcon. He's usually at TEB, no?

Here are some of mine from a very brief outting at LGA.

Good angles! Love the B+W AA.

Awesome touchdown smoke on that Mad Dog Mark.

Amazing stuff guys! This thread definitely makes me want to try out LGA one of these days. I love the angles that are possible there. If only JFK had a park overlooking the threshhold of 4R!
