AERLINGUS_747-100_EI-ASI_JFK_0910_JP_small.jpg1550 viewsIt's hard to describe the love I have for these photos. This photo, taken 22 years ago was on cheap Ektachrome slide film, developed at the local drug store. I was able to restore it to its full glory after massive color correction, scratch and dirt removal- lots of work but well worth it. This beautiful Aer Lingus 747-100 just touched down on runway 31R and went long, to the delight of this photographer (most airplanes turn off earlier and this type of photo is not possible)

All concordes were eventually fitted with protective material on the wings so that they cannot be pierced by anything the tires go over on takeoff/landing. Note the temporary red protective tape used on windows and any openings on the airplane

emassJFK22L.jpg1540 viewsAnother photo most people don't get to see and appreciate what is in the photo. This is EMAS (Engineered materials arrestor system) at the end of runway 22L (there is another one at the other end of 22L which is same runway 4R). EMAS is supposed to slow down and eventually stop an airplane that cannot stop under it's own power. EMAS has already saved 3 airplanes that I'm aware of at JFK; an American Eagle Saab340, a Polar Air 747F and I think it was a Gemini MD11F

aa752_n713tw_fll_1_03.jpg1522 viewsI would venture to say that only hard core airliner enthusiasts know that this is a TWA 757 in American Airlines colors. After American bought out TWA, the 757's were retained due to their ETOPS capability. Eventually the TWA 757s that went to American went on to serve with Delta which flies them with the addition of winglets. It's a bit hard to tell with the size of this photo but if you look at the A in American, just below it to the left is a TWA sticker.

airfrancea319ncenov03.jpg1507 viewsDefinetely not what pilots want to see on final approach, or at any phase of flight for that matter. This flock of birds crossed the runway and were flying away from the flight path of the AF A319 on final approach, otherwise I'm sure the pilot would have taken evasive action. NCE has a very, very irritating noice making machine on the field to make the birds go away. Note that the airport is right on the Mediterranean and does attract heavy bird activity so pilots are very cognizant of the issue when flying into and out of NCE
