>I recall watching one of their super squat DC9s (a -10 or -15 I think, someone will know) making an approach to 23 or so I thought. It then turned final somewhere over Cranford with somewhere between 1 and 2d to run; and of course was beautifully painted on to 28R.
>Spectacular.
Jumpseating in the late-eighties, I saw a similar type turn finals at (estimated)less than a mile to 09L. The comment from the captain I was with - "Bonkers - far too many eyes watching down here to do that" or similar.
Maybe both the same aviator, who ought to have gone crop-dusting instead.
