Love them !!! especially the smoking 727,and the TAA DC3, when I was based at Jfk in '03 flying the 727 you could see the smoke trail in the distance long before you could make out the jet when she...
COOL,COOL I'm a Canarsie approach guy myself :)
awesome !!!
The only TU154 I ever saw was Guyana Air back in 1986, subbing for their 707 which incidentally was the last scheduled 707 pax service into Kennedy.
!!! !
you may be right !!!
I saw his Longbow ( RAF Apache) in Bastion a while back,or I should say his squadrons Longbow's. i dare say Prince Hal travels first class BA, I dont think he rates the Queens private fleet for his...
Amen !!! the best spotting in my life was at my grandmother's house in South Ozone Park, from my other grandparent's Brooklyn rooftop, and my driveway in Jersey :)
I have been liking these threads about spotting JFK, from Jersey,LI,et al,when I was a kid I used to spot from N.Jersey with a telescope the arrivals descending through the mid teens, there was no...
we see them all the time at Liege,and Leipzig ,I am surprised it has taken them so long to get here.
Sea Bright just south of the Hook is also a great place when they are using the 13s, nice and low descending for the Canarsie VOR,nice beach too,or was before Sandy, will see in a few weeks.
awesome !!!
Canarsie,simply rocks !!!
i hope they use the Canarsie approach :)
used to love their Classics,right up there with Alitalia, and the SAS longboat livery.
yeah,we are always in a hurry to leave, but that had zero to do with what happened.
they pulled the video,thats a good thing
God bless the crew, and their families. that video was shattering.
I have a wee bit of time in the IFL CV580's, great little company, they fly 4 727s also,along with the CV5800 (stretch 580), in the late 90's we flew a mess of DC3s,and piston Convair 340s all over...
rest in peace brothers
that Starbucks rocks for spotting
you know in their last incarnation they were a bottom feeding 727 outfit that no one would touch with a 10 foot pole,but it was still awesome to see the blue ball flying.
that Cathay on the Canarsie is way cool, back in '03 when I was flying 727s for le Champion, on a thundery day at Kennedy we were blessed with a holding pattern near the airport,our third that...
2003, I remember the Biman DC10s, and the Aeromar ships,along with Concorde,and the last 747-200s in Alitalia colors , I was flying a Champion 727 out of JFK that year, we were the last scheduled pax...
