KJFK - 09/30/2011

Wanted to get a little spotting in this morning from Bayswater. Morning turned into afternoon, just as I was ready to call it a day Manny informed me "Lufthansa Cargo - 100 Years Air Cargo" was on the ground and most likely was getting ready to head out. Here are some of my catches for the day. Thanks Manny!!!

Lufthansa A380 - New York (I think this is my first time seeing this one here)

Probably the cleanest Air France I've ever seen (I think this may be one of their newest additions, F-GZNI)

Some of the usual morning suspects departing off 22R

Mark, Great lift off shots... Looks like you have some very nice catches and great weather as well...



Rich B

Great set of shots!! DAMN I miss JFK!! :)

Thanks Rich. Typically heat haze kills a lot of rotation or taxing shots from this spotting location, but on this day the heat haze was pretty low.

Awesome catch, Mark !!! Great set sir

Great Set!

MarkZee!! Wow, those are great... mine are not as good since Bayswater distances are beyond my Full Frame sensor for my taste :-( But, glad we caught that German :cool:

Yes - been out all day today at friends - will reply a little later...

Looks like you had a great day out there Mark! Awesome catch on that Lufty cargo!

Mark awesome set.... Manny, Eric & you provide excellent coverage of Kennedy. (every evening checking the NYC page is like opening Daily news and get the day's photo coverage from you guys!) Thanks again.

Raj........Much thanks!!! I'm sure I speak for Eric and Manny as well as your kind words are greatly appreciated.

By the way, the Cathay Pacific 777 is their newest I believe (B-KPX)

Great set!

Love the LH MD-11!

Do you have the reg of that particular bird? Would like to note the special scheme if it's one I've caught in the past.
