    Great Video! Not only do we get a pilot's perspective of LaGuardia's short runways, but also the tight spacing as another jet is visible having just taken off on the same runway seconds before.

    Ah yes! I remember this well... (on DC-9s and A320s). ACCURACY above all else on touchdown...Then - get off runway expeditiously and never go across the intersection with the crossing runway because then it'd be at least a half-hour longer to get back across the taxiway to the gate! ;-) nice video - thanks for sharing.

    I have the utmost respect for pilots who are able to get their jet aircraft into LGA. That's one of the trickiest, hardest airports to get into, leaving very little room or margin for error.
    And that's in good weather conditions.
    I lived in NY during my teen years, and I experienced this as a passenger many times.
    What the hell were the developers and city officials thinking when they built those humungous, Godzilla-sized buildings right under the flight path into Runway 31???? JEEZ!!! you're only at 500 feet when you're going over those things!!

    On this particular day Runway 4-22 was likely closed for construction as it’s clear they are arriving and departing Runway 31. And this video is 6 years old and that’s right around the time 4-22 was being rehabbed.

      I was between 9000 - 10,000 hours TT when this was taken, the majority of which was in the CRJ-200 & 900. It's about how fine you want to slice it, and how far from the runway. For example, loosey goosey doesn't work in the flare. What I am doing it trying to accomodate every gust and fairly far out, so the aircraft doesn't start going in some undesired direction. 100% seat of the pants. You are always trying to get better. 747 video for reference: facebook.com/reel/695588245731704
