    Anyone planing to spot at JFK on sunday 3-11?

    Im planing to go out to JFK to do some spotting. Im not usually there on a sunday because i usually spend time at a friends house on sundays and now im planing to spend my entire day at JFK hoping to catch some nice planes and mostly cargos. Is anyone gonna be there sunday?

    Maybe...right now it sounds like the weather may be questionable - Intellicast is saying "Showers ending by midday. Highs in the low 50s and lows in the low 30s."

    I'll probably post something here Sunday morning if I'm heading out.

    Any spotting would be PM if the forecast is correct. If something good is coming in it will be a game time decision.

    Looks like it's now supposed to be sunny. If it stays that way I'll be out tomorrow.

    Right now the 4s are in use...so that looks like Bayswater.

    Unfortunatley Bayswater is dead at this point. 4R arrivals have to be shot early morning to be worth anything. Only afternoon shooting you can do at Bayswater is 13R departures. I will monitor ATIS for a little while

    np, by 11 that sun is high and to you left so it's total crap. Still on golf at this point. With the 31s closed so who knows.

    If you were to go to Bayswater/Jamaica Bay Park, I would suggest the A train to Far Rockaway/Mott Ave and then transfer to the 22A bus...BUT did you see Nick's above post about the poor spotting conditions this time of day?

    Yea that is the station to use. Bayswater will be tough light to shoot. I would tell you to try to find a spot near the mounds to catch 4L departures but without a car that's impossible.
