Hi, im just starting spotting again.
i've shot at a couple of airshows over the summer.
But I would like to start spoting around JFK again.
I have a D50 and a bigma lens.
When is the best time of day to go to JFK to spot the heavies landing?

Most of the Euro heavies come in from 1PM on to dusk.
k thx is the any type of rush hour at JFK? like 3pm?

From 3PM on it gets very busy, problem is this time of year you have no light. If June isn't a hot hazy month that is the best time to maximize your chances of getting all the birds you want with the best sky conditions.
so what about during the winter time lets say on a sunday when are the busiest times?

If you can get out during the week the morning brings some nice heavies. Singapore, Thai, TAM, Korean, Air France and various other cargo stuff. Plus the light is awesome.

I thought you were talking about "people of size" flying out of Kennedy--like those who now have to buy 2 seats on US Air.
It's the fares, stupid

Hey nikon50bigma, welcome.
I've got the same camera. There aren't too many Nikonians around here.
Er... excuse the ignorance, but what's this bigma you have? (No personal question intended :oops: .) Some sort of Sigma lens?

I beg to differ! We are here we just don't make as much noise as the Canon people.There aren't too many Nikonians around here.
As best as my memory serves me the following here are Nikonians.
Myself
Art Brett (AAGOLD)
Mike M (Mikephotos)
Josh Akbar (jakbar)
Mike Primamore (Flyingcolors)
Winglets747
Matt Celmer (Cancidas)
Tommy Alfano (t-bird76) He owns a D200 but thinks it's a 30D.
So don't worry you are not alone!

All Canon users!!!! Nick you must accept this!
On a serious note though the Canon Nikon debate is like the Boeing vs. Airbus debate. Both are good products that will take fantastic pictures.
Any chance though to bust on Nick I'll take! LOL
I would! Pentax is not all the bad.If Sam Chui switched to a Pentax Nick would switch! LOLOL
