JFK Approach Shots.... taken from New Jersey

[AJ]

I am very lucky to live near Sandy Hook, NJ. It's nice to sit on my back deck with camera in hand, not the best quality but the commute home is great.

I waited, and waited but finally someone went near the moon.

Occasionally you get one with gear down, not bad considering they are still over NJ.

Love the light on the CX 777! You have a nice spot there

Nice set AJ and not a bad spotting location

[727C47]

Sea Bright just south of the Hook is also a great place when they are using the 13s, nice and low descending for the Canarsie VOR,nice beach too,or was before Sandy, will see in a few weeks.

[Landing Lights]

Great shots, AJ! I'm curious, what is their approximate altitude at that point?

[AJ]

Thanks guys, normally they are @2500 feet (as per flightradar24).
