    JFK 03/17/2012 - A Few Special Visitors

    Had to go "shopping" at Costco and no one said I had to go to the one near me so I stopped by the field for a few hours.

    Dynamic 102 subbing for normal EZ Jet which was sitting by Triple Hangars with all doors open.









    The Ryan left as "Ryan Air" for Chicago...





    Will I EVER get this guy properly? OMG!!! Was all ready for it on 13R, and of course they are LATE!!!!... so they were the first on 22R after RWY Change... ugh!















    Could not get a clean shot of the Super 27 in the background in new colors

    Thanks guys. Phil I knew that. I just found it odd ;-).

    Mark, I would have been bad company as I was in a hurry to leave. I just wish I didn't waste my time at Bayswater :-(

    Nice Eric... I wish I could have stayed to the end. I felt really guilty leaving early but the wife had already finished dinner and if I am late for that, I am a dead man! lol

    Nice grabs Manny. I wanted that Lineage badly, but they sent him to 22! GRRRRR! I'll post my JFK stuff tomorrow, I just finished my LGA shots.

    John, were you by 13? All European stuff came in on 22L and all Southern and Western and Northern stuff came in on 13L with a sprinkle of Delta and Bizjets on 13R but that's normal. Funny, I didn't see anyone at Bayswater nor at the "other" spots... never touched the mounds because I knew if I went, I'd never leave

    Manny I was at one of the other 13 spots. Judging by your shots, we must have just missed each other. I've got the Astrojet & the Corning Falcon landing.

    Nice catches, Manny!

    Has anyone ever seen a Lineage 1000 at JFK?

    There are only about a dozen around, and only one registered in the US. A6-AJH is the second one built.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.

    Nice stuff, gentlemen! Interestingly enough, I saw Astrojet, the C&T Charter, and that same Air Berlin A330 in Miami yesterday, though they all came in on the north side so I couldn't shoot them.

    Thanks all...

    John, like you said, just by minutes I guess... too bad :-) I was at Bayswater waiting for Ryan and C&T to depart. I should have ignored them and just stayed put on 13L or gone to 22L spot for KLM ... I would have gotten the Lineage coming in Since I had both the Astrojet and KLM Skyteam already, I skipped them in favor of Ryan departing. Had I gotten C&T chatters landing, I definitely would have ditched Ryan as I had it coming in... THis hobby can be frustrating at JFK!!! lol.

    The other Lineage I got was PT-TLS at EWR when it was passing through for delivery back in November
