JFK ATCT and DPA Fly-In
Posted: Sun Mar 16, 2014 3:28 pm
I thought I'd share with you some pictures from a recent fly-in into JFK that was organized by the Downwind Pilots Association. We (not me, as I couldn't get a plane) flew into JFK and then toured the tower before departing up the Hudson River to HPN, having lunch, and then returning to FRG or ISP.
A friend of mine was the front line manager so I was able to stay around after the tour had finished in order to take these pictures of them departing. Unfortunately, I only had an iPhone so the zoom was not nearly good enough for the speckles of objects that they were flying. As a side note, it is very humorous to see a small, tiny little Piper or Cessna taxiing amidst two A380's, 747's, and a 787. You can't help but say, "Oh, how cute is that little baby plane!?"
