After reviewing the previuos posted site of flight-data, it looks, that they were perfectly aligned with the highway before they turned for the missed approach. Could it be that they descended according the (wrong) visual cues from the highway? 13,5h flying in the dark before doing a canarsie isn`t the easy task.
And when JFK ATC will save my and the life of my 300 pax in a possible weak moment - they can do it unpolite, harsh, non-standard or what ever, I will surely thank them very much.
