Great video Sherpa - Recommend you mention in the title / description that this landing occurred on the rare runway 29. Which gets you the closest views to nyc. Not many videos on youtube that capture Runway 29. Landings are rare, takeoffs are super rare.

Thank you for the information and feedback :)

The biggest issue with runway 29 is that it prevents buildings in Jersey City from being taller than they otherwise could be. 99 Hudson, JC's tallest building is 899 feet high, the maximum height in JC allowed by the FAA.

Runway 29, hardly used, except during Winter, with it's strong winds from the west.

[@SherpaTraveler]

Thanks for the information, I took this video around end of February.

I used it when coming home from Honolulu and it was April on United airlines

I live in North Jersey and travel the NJ Turnpike everyday. I noticed on windy days they use Runway 29. It's pretty cool to get the timing just right to have the plane fly right over you.

Could remember in June 1996, we stayed at nearby Day's Inn ( not sure still existed) for 3 weeks. Every evening we watched airplanes landing from the sky,so marvellous view. All flights seem like Q-up in the sky before landing, every few seconds, the aircraft appears, and landing...and so on. ERW was quite a busy airport. Nice view !!

[@SherpaTraveler]

Thanks for sharing your experience. It was windy, and landing was a little rough-overall great flight.

[@geoffreyherrick298]

I remember when I went to Newark I could see all of Staten Island.
