Kudos to the controllers at JFK right now, over 140 aircraft inbound! I was landing at JFK in a TBM-930 from BOS and they did a great job vectoring, especially since I was the only turboprop in their airspace and I was going 180ktsš Anyways, awesome controlling by them! Also thank you to whoever opened up HFD for a short time, which I guess is my second home base aside from BDLš¤

The tower half an hour ago was great. He really threaded the needle thoughā¦

I doubt they ignored you, as they were very busy they may have forgotten about you but that is even doubtful.

Thanks pal, I signed off after 2:30. Very relived. I was running 3-4nm spacing which is really really tight. Glad you enjoyed the approach into runway 04R I believe. We were running the 13L approach which was a blast. Looked so cool with 6 airplanes lined up on a 10nm base. Will most likely I open later and run it myself if the winds permit.
Thanks,
Ethan

Wow. Thatās what JFK should look like in real life at this time of day and towards the evening! For once, IF Expert Server looks like real JFK!

Agreed, kudos to the controllers. Not only dealing with busy airspace in a realistic way, but also coping with pilots who donāt understand the visual approach into the 13s. Really enjoyed my approach and landing there just now.

Not just the 13s but any runway at JFKš There was someone on approach for 4R that seemed like he had no idea what he was doing, he didnāt have many flight hours so probably wasnāt too experienced . Most likely not a good idea to fly into JFK unexperiencedš
