    JFK August 9th Recap - More Rotten Weather

    EWR runways were not looking good for today so we decided to hit JFK for a third time this week!

    Weather did not hold and was cloudy for most of the time. 13L was used mostly for arrivals so we spent most of the time out at Cargo Plaza.

    It was great to meet Phil and Matt Sokol! Thanks to both (and Gordon) for making the day great!

    Pics will posted later.
    nwa FOREVER!

    Another bad day of weather this week but at least I finally caught Zoom, Flyglobespan, Travelspan, and Virgin America.

    Wow, when I left work around 4 the sun was perfect here. Can't believe you had clouds. I had my radio on and thought I heard they were using 22. Did they ever switch?, the Cargo area is tough this time of year with the sun. Can't wait till October then it's ****!

    Good Shots Gordon.
    Too bad we had mostly clouds all the time, with some minor rain.

    My Shots did not come out too well, due to weather, but it was still great to go out spotting with Matt T, Gordon, and his dad.
    Here are some (not in any order, some edited, some not)

    That last night shot is supper, Matt! I tried for something like that but was not lucky enough to catch both in the frame.
