Just south of the George Washington Bridge 'The GW' you'll get a vector for base.
Kennedy has te Wonderfull VOR/DME 22L (the Canarsie curve..) IIRC AN Emirates 380 grazed the employee parking lot after misunderstanding the procedure last year and LGA the Expressway Visual. Aside from Kai Tak (RIP) and the River Visual into DC; the most fun you can have at work...
the carnarsie is on 13L/R
