UN Week 2019

[jbluflyermatt]

One of the ramp guys up at Stewart posted a picture of A6-PFE (UAE B789), and it was indeed from this year. Guess they snuck in on us. Wonder what the Weststar was then...

[jbluflyermatt]

I don't think VP-CKH was UN related, it came into Bedford from Farnborough then to White Plains and is still there.
P4-BFY was from Luanda to Teteboro and same route back so must have a connection to the Angolan delegates.

That's true, I'll remove CKH from the list. I'm not too sure on BFY. Angola used Royal Jet's BBJ, so I'm not exactly sure what that one was. Maybe not UN related.

Thank you Jbluflyermatt who took his time to follow and post all these movements and even included a list at the end, and thanks to everyone else who posted valuable info including Springbok with planes coming out of Africa. Thank you all for keeping the UN thread tradition alive.

No problem, Mario! Listen... I reserve that weekend as UN Weekend for me. I keep my eyes glued on the radar(s) all day, and sometimes I'll be at the airports watching stuff come in too.

I went up to NY the last two years for a few planes on my list but skipped it this time

Great stuff, Ryan! Thanks for posting! Looks like you got some really interesting shots.

[MarkLawrence]

That is an outstanding set of stuff!!!

[jbluflyermatt]

Mark your calendars... the General Debate for next year starts on Tuesday the 22nd of September, which means UN Weekend will be the 19th and 20th!

[jerslice]

Hot set of photos! That IL-96 is something else.

[jbluflyermatt]

Well, I would actually consider TODAY to be the last day of UNGA. The Emir of Kuwait was in the hospital here in New York the past few weeks, and he wasn’t able to fly home. He’s finally going back today. Kuwait’s 748 is currently at JFK, expected to leave within an hour as KUG001.

Excellent shots Ryan! I thought we would go the whole time without any Russian metal and the Il-96 shows up right at the end. Too cool
