    JFK 13R and 13L pics mucho, mucho, mucho,

    Windy day today but I went out anyway. There was a huge line for departures for 13R as two taxiways were used. I had to wait some time for the heavys to take off for some reason with ATC, one reason i saw was a line of geese flying down 13R :lol:


    some arrivals on 13L:


    Air India 777 from EWR





    shots of the long departure line:
    2 for 1 deal









    some solo aircraft shots:


    Trade Winds

    Brit 747-400



    LOT 767 Star Alliance

    Egyptair 777

    Turk A330


    now some 13R deps.












    misc. pics:
    how did they get there?


    QUACK!

    Your "weird aircraft" looks to be a Cessna 337, a push-me/pull-you twin. A variant of it also saw service in the USAF (among others) as the O-2 Skymaster, used primarily by Forward Air Controllers in Viet Nam.

    Yes, a very common civil aviation General Av aircraft to see in the mid to late 70s, but much less common now.
