Niagara to Teterboro

DAY9, LEG 49 - Niagara to Teterboro

Now for the short hop east into the very crowded airspace of New York.  Teterboro is the main general aviation airport for New York and is home to a number of corporate jet companies who fly from Teterboro to destinations around the world.  It is a good place for us to stop since it is less crowded than other New York airports and allows us a quick turnaround.

On a very long final approach to Teterboro flying past Newark Airport.  We have been asked to slow down by ATC to allow a Gulfstream V from San Antonio, TX to land ahead of us.

As we pass Manhattan in the distance the ride becomes a little bumpy with gusts up to 17kts from our left.

You can begin to see the busy ramp area on short final.

Holding for an outbound Gulfstream as we taxi in.

Parked at Teterboro with the Manhattan skyline in the distance.
