Flying out of JFK

Hi,
I will be flying out of JFK on 18 April at 400P and returning to JFK on
30 April at 725P. I'm thinking of flying my Archer from Cleveland to
somewhere in the area (no, I don't want to go into JFK, ha ha) and
leaving her there for the couple of weeks. Any suggestions will be
appriciated. I will probably plan to spend the night of the 30th and
fly back on 1 May. Hotel suggestion near where the Archer will be
staying. Suggested transportation from Archer to JFK.
Thanks to all.

Why "ha ha"? I flew (actually was flown) into JFK once in a Comanche to
catch a flight to Europe. Aside from having to know what you're doing,
it wasn't a particularly big deal. (It was pretty darn cool though.)

If you left your plane there for two weeks (as Chuck is planning to do), then
you have way more money than sense. Or I guess that should be "had."

That's why the "ha ha."

Ah, good point. I was flown in, and the pilot turned right around and
flew back out again.

What was the landing fee?

I flew into Logan once; they had a sale going. For a month or so they
reduced the landing fee (at least for us little guys) to five dollars.
The controllers did a fine job and the approach was seamless. I had the
same experience into National (DC) some years back.

The fees later went right back to their usual level, and I bet they
approach three figures now, though I wouldn't be surprised if the
highest fees aren't at JFK but at smaller airports served by Signature.

I think it was supposed to be $100 (whoever said flying was a cheap
hobby?) but no one ever bothered to collect it. (In the FBO we were
told the pilot would get a bill in the mail, but he never did.)

The last I heard ( about six months ago ) the fee at JFK was $25 if you
land there before 1400 or 1500 EST, but that was just for a couple
hours. They have a courtesy van to take you to the terminal of your
choice. However, the long term parking might be a problem. The Port
Authority of NY and NJ has a website with a telephone number to get the
information.

You can download the entire schedule of fees at
http://www.panynj.gov/aviation/jfkscheduleframe.htm

The site is a heavy on frames and javascript so it's hard to bookmark, but
I believe the above URL will get you right to the fee schedule document.

Republic nearby, KFRG, has lots of options and not too far from Kennedy.
Catch a Super Shuttle or a cab.

I have RON at Cleveland Hopkins, leaving the airplane at the Jet
Center... Landed at night as #2 with only a 757 in the pattern ahead of
me... Left at 5:30 AM and had the taxiways and the runway to myself...
It never hurts to make a few phone calls to the business jet FBO's at
JFK and you may find it possible, or not... But if you don't check, you
won't know...
