As an air traffic controller who grew up on Long Island, Peter's narration is extremely accurate. The procedures flown, airspace knowledge and landmark recognition is outstanding. Great video!

Man, that shot of Manhattan from 13,000 feet is absolutely mind-blowing! Just unreal.

One of the best approach videos into JFK with extremely insightful narration and excellent visuals. Outstanding work Peter!

What a view especially Manhattan even from that high up it’s still a beast. This video made me very nostalgic about NYC.

3:27 that is breath taking , thank you and cheers .

This was an excellent description of the final approach and landing into JFK.... From one aviation geek to another I give this video 5 stars!! 🛬

I came to JFK 5 weeks after the 9/11 attacks. The pilot banked high and the view of the non stop work at ground zero illuminated the surroundings with a pale of smoke still visible. A sight I will never forget.

I never tire of watching NYC aircraft landing videos and this one made most sense of what you see from high up as you descend with your interesting narration. Great vid!

Peter! This is a great video and highly accurate. As a NYC pilot, I can attest. Keep coming out with the great videos and congrats on reaching 1K subs!

EXTREMELY detailed breakdown of this approach. Thank you!

Spectacular ✨love the detailed description of the approach :)

Thank you for this video. That was quite interesting !!!!!! As a New Yorker and someone that flies often it was great to learn about how it all works

Love it! I don't think I've ever had such a clear descent into JFK myself (there were always clouds somewhere). One of the best parts of living in Queens was watching air traffic coming in for a landing at JFK...I could see it from my balcony at home!

What a ride! I loved it! I flew almost non-stop for twelve years over all fifty states, only landing at JFK twice. I have a much better appreciation for the pilots in the New York area! Wonderful insight!

What an incredibly professional production and interesting video, especially to those of us who've traveled this very route numerous times but never had the pleasure of the audio visual version. I was born in New Rochelle 77 years ago and now make my home in Orange County, Ca. That said, however, I was fortunate enough to have my livelihood fly me extensively cross country for many, many years. I no longer travel as much but enjoy quality presentations of which this is a perfect example. Peter, this is the first time I've subscribed to a channel prior to the end of the first showing. Btw, your vocal demeaner is perfectly soothing and relaxed as if talking to a good friend. Looking forward to seeing and hearing more!

That was outstanding, especially the description of all the neighborhoods! Very clear and accurate descriptions.

Good video, I like how you explain what we are seeing. Thank you!

This is amazing. Thank you for the detailed and very informative narration. Great video!

This is a rare example of top notch videography and the details are right on the money. It doesn't get any better than this for a flight narration.

My neck of the woods. I live in ROSEDALE Queens and work at JFK terminal 4. I've been to the the first part of the tower quite a few times especially for Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner. Thank you IAT.

Beautiful views. I've recently landed on the JFK the same way and visibility was awesome. No matter how many times you are doing this, the view is always spectacular and love recognizing the neighborhoods from the above.

I am glad Utube recommended your video. You do a great job explaining the situation and your photography is superb. I'm not a aviation buff but I'm gonna watch some more of your channel.

That was quite different and really enjoyable. Thanks!

Growing up and still living on Long Island made this video very entertaining for me. I recognized everything in and around the city. All the bridges and highways etc. - And seeing Jones Beach from the air is always special being I've spent countless days there. The narration was spot on. Excellent work!

Love that shoutout to my old hometown of Wantagh, NY! I remember when I was a kid there were all these different planes flying overhead. It was always a thrill when there was a Concorde flying above us!

Wow, this is really SPECTACULAR, I love how you describe everything in detail.

This is amazing. Seeing Central Park from that altitude is really a sight to behold. Excellent narration by a highly knowledgeable gentleman.

I work at JFK terminal 4. It's cool seeing it on your video. 😊 Awesome view of NYC and long Island. 👌

Truly stunning video and expertly narrated. What a gorgeous day you had with incredible visibility. Thank you for sharing. Excellent!

Great video, you really know your stuff. Growing up in mill basin, I watched so many planes land via Canarsie approach which forced the pilots to make a sharp right turn at that hotel.

Such a great, clear and amazing joy Mr. Peter! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece!!!

Wow. Probably the best narration of an approach that I've ever seen. Request you do one for DFW if you have the chance. Great job!

This was very informative and enjoyable. I actually had a NYC map on a second window trying to trace the path you were describing; something I always have a problem of doing when approaching JFK on an actual flight. Great job Peter and thanks!

*indeed, a spectacular view of the different burros of N.Y., thanks for sharing!*

I've flown this route a few times. Never gets old.

Great narration, I felt like I was on an expensive vacation tourand the captain was narrating the scenery!

This brought back memories, very detailed, thanks for your work on this. I was once on an aborted BA 767 landing at JFK many years ago, we were very close to landing but had to climb rapidly as another plane hadn’t cleared the runway! So we got to fly around NY twice!!

My goodness!! This is breathtaking footage! Never been to NYC so this is spectacular! Thank you so much for filming it and sharing it. Fantastic! 👍👍👍👍 Yes to more! Please! Subscribed! Thanks again, that was awesome.

Love your channel. Thank you so much for these videos. I could watch you narrate flights all day! Fantastic. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for explaining, I was wondering about the interesting approach from Atlanta to JFK, it was a lot of turning and descending. Very fun!

I enjoy listening to JFK atc. Thank you for all of the visual and other detail about flying into JFK from that approach. I would be equally as interested in other approaches into JFK or anywhere else. Enjoyed it.

Great video!! Grew up in Rosedale :) You had to rotate your head from left to right to see the entire wingspan of a widebody when they were flying low on an overcast day.

Have flown that route before but your play by play made it awesome! thx

You break it down the best, even the boarders at the end. I don't have to say a thing except thank you for your extremely accurate narration of the city. You really know where you are.

Great video, great camera work, informative commentary! Loved it!

Thanks Peter. Loved the video, narration, and info! I felt like I was sitting with you in seat A. I've flown into JFK with that sam approach. I look forward to more of your videos and insight.

Wow thanks for this post. As an armchair traveler of late, I really appreciate it and file away the knowledge for future trips.

Great video and narration! 👏🏻👏🏻 Love these type videos and aviation in general. Thanks

*Peter that was a wonderful video and I really enjoyed it, good work man, keep making such videos*

We used to visit relatives in rosedale. The jets would be 4 houses down, about every 90 seconds, the TV. Would go crazy, then you could watch again. Forget speaking too. Was great when the wind came from another direction!

genuinely obsessed with this video. thanks for sharing!!

thank you so much for the narration and labeling points of interest!

Peter, thank you. That was tremendous! Your narration was very detailed, and quite interesting!

Great video, and I especially love how you labeled the different locations on the ground. I've never understood why most passengers never lift their window shades for the entire flight, like they are just too cool to look out the window and enjoy the views.

Great video! Thanks for posting. The only time I flew into JFK I happened to be on the right hand side and we landed using the Canarsie approach. What a pleasant surprise that was! Air India 747. Very memorable.

The fact that it flew over Rosedale, which just so happens to be my old hometown, gave me a lot of memories

Greetings from England! Very nice and informative video. That high approach to JFK reminded me of a flight I took from Dulles to the UK many years ago, we overflew Manhattan and had a clear view of the Brooklyn Bridge all lit up.

You can tell from my screen-name where I was born and raised (specifically Manhattan, NYC). 🗽 I've been through many approaches to JFK and LGA. The narration was excellent: Not too much or too little, and technically accurate; including the many landmarks highlighted. Well done! 🎉

I never get tired watching this vídeo but i’ m waiting for more! You mentioned Jones Beach , Elmwood Park, Garden City and places that i went !

Thank you so much for this I haven't flown over this area in years. NY is my hometown, I grew up in Kew Gardens

He is correct with all the names and settings I fly in and out all the time from JFK

Awesome video, Peter, and very informative! Greetings from New Zealand

I grew up in Cedarhurst and used to wave to the pilots! Thanks for the great video.

Having a clear beautiful day added to your video. Well done!

OMG Peter! I've never seen this approach and you captured the whole city! Amazing! You were very lucky and the weather cooperating too.

One of the best landing videos I have ever seen. Best wishes from India !

Peter, you certainly narrate the videos that you film and edit, with complete calmness and amazing intellect! Congratulations with the material that you've produced so far and keep going! ✋🏻💪🏻✌🏻

I used to think the flying was the hardest job but the people who work in the tower dealing with pilots from all over the world and how busy they are with hundreds of flights a day to juggle they just don't get paid enough thank you for posting

Pete, you are a Godsend. Your video editing, narration, steady camera, views, etc. is just awesome. JFK airport is an iconic structure of New York City and you are making it come alive with your beautiful videos. I almost felt like I was flying the plane with your exact descriptions. So perfect. Please give us more videos. Thank you

Great video. I live in Manhattan and usually choose LGA or Newark because the flights to JFK are actually 15-20 minutes longer (if I’m coming in from the West Coast or south) due to the reasons you explained in the video. But I do prefer JFK over Newark for International flights from Europe.

Wonderful presentation. Enjoyed the commentary, information. Great view of New York and surrounding area. Excellent and what a beautiful day to fly. Thank you.

One of the best videos I’ve seen in a long time - your talk and explanation throughout the video made it all the more enjoyable to watch !

Wow! That was absolutely awesome! Your filming is amazing, and I loved hearing about each area you flew over. Super fun and interesting to watch. Many thanks - stay well:-)

That was FANTASTIC....Love the special detail to this video. Have you been to the old TWA terminal hotel at JFK ?

Amazing description of all steps with incredible precision AMAZING AKERP GOING is very educative

Beautiful approach and landing as well as the commentary by Peter Marsella. I would definitely like to see more videos like this one. Thank you.

Thank You Peter. You captured this experience perfectly Outstanding work!

I flew in and out of this airport for 32 years before I retired. Great coverage and explanation. You lucked out with such clear weather where all of New York was highly visible. While a lot has changed since I retired, this is still the same arrival for Runway 22 from the West that gives the longest view of the entire area. I wanted you to call out the sites of Manhattan, the GW bridge and Central Park, but they did go by quickly. Great job!

perfect in all ways, narration, towns ,descriptions . would love to see a san diego approach the same way over balboa park

Fantastic narration you really know the area and flight procedures Thank you

One of the best landing videos, with ur informative comments.

Wow this was a great video, nice job, the view was amazing 👏 👌 😍

having limited finances yet still immensely interested in geography and mapping, this is a perfect fit thank you for posts and videos really enjoy!

This is the best. Thank you for your excellent commentaries. I really enjoyed the view and the close up. Thank you.

Some great footage. Your talking points are outstanding.

Great commentary. Spectacular views of NYC and gives you a pretty good idea at the immense size of the city.

Thanks for that narrative on the approach over NYC and landing on RWY 22L. Enjoyed it and would love to see more of your videos of this similar nature. 😊👍🏽

Thank you Peter! Loved and Enjoyed the video. Your explanation precise and on point. Thanks a Bunch!

bravo flying thru bravo! this inspired me to pull out the ole XPlane yoke and fly around a bit in my virtual Cessna.

Its not very often you get to see this view or have such wonderful narration of where and what everything is and why. Outstanding job :)

Love the commentary, thank you. Would love to see more videos like this.

I’m from Long Island and thought it was so great to see all of NYC, the Long Island sound, Jones beach Madison Square Garden etc… GREAT VIDEO.

An absolute ton of information in this vid. Thank you so much for making this video.. We flew in from the other side into JFK on a beautifully clear and sunny 24th Dec 2019. A week later, I took a night flight from JFK to Amsterdam on a 787.

Former PI/US employee, dad was maintenance at UR/PI/US. I completely enjoyed this video. Cheers from Buenos Aires.

Nice. Flying on on the path tommrow. Going out of msp sitting on the left. Hoping for good weather

Love that zoom on Manhattan and your narration from beginning to end. So interesting! I always enjoy & learn with you.. Thanks, Peter!

One of the best vids to ever show this approach. Flown that route many times but I didn't even notice this when sitting in the left seat. I wish it were the pilot's left seat but it was behind the left wing as usual so as to see the wing's control surfaces in action. Keep these vids up.

I've flown that arrival countless times as the pilot and I learned a lot from the vid. Nice job!

Great video..love all the detail on what it takes to fly and land a plane. Good job!

Hi Peter, I sit on my apartment terrace in Forest Hills, NY and count the planes getting ready to land at LGA. It’s always fascinating to see the plane’s landing gear in position. In the early evening around dinner time the flights are coming in over Brooklyn. I never thought about planes taking off and landing until I started watching your channel. I am really impressed by your knowledge and appreciate your passion for our city. Thank you.
