"The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' "
Ronald Reagan
Couldn't agree more. When folks drive up to a group of us in the Firestone lot and ask us what we're doing, instead of having a polite and informative conversation which is usually well received, some of us respond with "We're taking pictures of airplanes. Got a ****ing problem with that?" It makes us as a whole look like a bunch of jackasses.Originally Posted by NIKV69

I do frequent N. Woodmere Park a lot and even there I see the Nassau County police there patrolling the grounds near where I spot and photograph 22L arrivals. I know this is a bit overboard, but even I am careful not to photograph around them.
I hear all of you who have been confronted by the PAPD. I have been pulled over by them on a couple of occasions and eventually gave up trying to photograph, less alone pull over my car, on JFK grounds. The most I do now is drive slowly through the terminals and spot quickly hoping that I won't catch the wrong eye of an officer or security guard.
Happy Spotting,

It's how you approach police that counts... Approach them like you belong there or from a friendly demeinor angle as in nothing to hide... Or if you address them before they you, it tends to show openness and respect for their concern.. They are less apt to bug you
Southwest Airlines-"Once it pop's it's time to stop" Southwest Airlines-"Our Shamu's are almost real" Southwest Airlines -"We blow our top real easy" Southwest Airlines- "You can't top us..... really"
The cargo spot you guys are talking about, is that here?
While it is not strictly allowed, it does not seem to be strictly prohibited other than ON or AROUND taxiways/runways. But you do need a permit for general areas, and a specific permit from the operators of all other areas

BRING BACK THE KJFK/KLGA OBSERVATION DECKS
Email me anytime at [email protected].
It is too bad that the PANYNJ cant welcome spotters in a friendlier manner. If they are really that scared of us why dont they put in a badge program for spotting? $5 for 1 year. I wouldnt mind paying $5 to have a spotting deck on premesis. They could easily but an observation deck on T4, the T5 garage or someplace else. There are so many things they can do to keep an eye on this and make JFK experiences better for everyone.
What is the cargo incident everyone keeps referring to? I know nothing about it. And since the area has been lost, it wouldn't hurt anything to discuss it. Maybe if people could read about it it might discourage stupid behavior.
