Had the chance to see the Solar Impulse as it landed at IAD very early Sunday morning (just after midnight). The last time I slept before the event was Thursday night, and there was a lot of activity in front of the plane, so photography was difficult. Here's my favorite shot, and there are two more here: http://aeropx.com/article/solar-impulse-lands-washington-dulles-international-airport

Great shot. Does anyone have an exact date for the JFK appearance yet? I checked their site but it's just 'early July'

Thanks, William. There probably won't be an exact date until it's pretty much en route. It's all very dependent on weather, air traffic, and so on. Fortunately, you can drive faster than this thing :P
