Went to JFK for a few hours today... saw Conrad but it was cold and never left my car... could not stay the whole day so I missed the One World BAW :-(

I was in the car right next to Conrad, I saw you drive by a couple times.

Ha!! Didn't notice it was you there tucked up against the Costco truck... Were you facing in or out? Sorry man... I would have said hello of course. LOL.

Nice stuff gentlemen!!! I was out this morning for a couple of hours and meet up with Antonis and a couple of his friends. Too darn windy at HoBe again and darn cold.

great shots !!!

[gonzalu]

Mark, it looks like BAW 747 was the only that delivered a decent position for a great shot. Although I like the way the Evergreen came out :-)

I hope tomorrow's weather predictions are wrong... light today was simply amazing as was air quality!

Hey somebody caught N490EV. Hang onto it. Its being repained for Saudi sometime in march.

[Zee71]

Thanks Manny! I actually like the way the Evergreen came even though it was back lite. I did some post processing to cleanup the EV image and give it some better lighting. The Evergreen rotated and banked early. On the otherhand the only thing I like about the FedEx was the way the wing was luminated. I only hung around till about 10:30-ish before I had to leave.

I hear you Mark. I have many shots in my personal collection of HoBe throwaways because I like a reflector or an angle that would never be liked in the wild :-) I was at 31L spots by around 12:00pm and had to leave before 3:00 because my commute is so long. I stuck around until 3:40p and paid the price for it. Ten minutes to JFK Cargo Area on Rockaway Blvd, then 30 minutes on the Van Wyck - Grand Central. It ws bad... from there, another 10 getting through the GWB exit on I-87 and then flew home from that point. By that time my wife was waiting behind the oor with a rolling pin LOL. Seriously we had dinner plans with friends and we are usually on-time! So I probably got a few points deducted today and likely won;t be allowed to play with the other children for a few weeks.

Man, Saudi is on the hunt for EV birds. They already repainted N491EV...

Contract and $$. Thats all I have to say. They want another -400 we dont have anotherone so they get our pure -200F till that time.

Great grabs guys.......Kuwait got lost after it cleared 31R and almost tried to go strait ahead to T7... Jammed on the brakes.... sat for 30 seconds than made the tightest turn I have ever seen a 777 make to get onto Alpha and heaf fown around the bend to the Gulf entrance to T4

Hiss Srq.....just like when ships enter the harbor a pilot gets on board and helps navigate the ship through the harbor, maybe the Kuwaities need a pilot to get on board as well to help navigate in and around the ramp. :)

I can help the Port with that job, and I'll take rights to photograph from the ramp as payment
