RAW AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL: Spectacular Manhattan View Arriving at LaGuardia Airport

This video is completely different than anything I have produced on this channel. Here I take a break from my narration and provide a real-time air traffic feed from checking in with New York Approach Control, to our ride up the Hudson river to checking in with the LaGuardia airport control tower all the way to clearing runway 22. This video is unedited and you'll here every transmission on each frequency were on. A "Transmission with this flight" banner is provided at the bottom of the screen when ATC is communicating with my flight.
I chose my seat on the right side of the plane specifically for the Manhattan view after checking local arrival time winds that indicated to me that runway 22 would be the landing runway and runway 13 would be the departure runway leading to a right traffic pattern to runway 22 since runway 13 departures would occupy airspace to the east of LaGuardia.
You do the commenting this time!

Everyone flying into LGA needs to experience this approach at least once, especially at night.

[@PeterMasella]

So true!

[@jameswadley7291]

Still prefer the great insights you provide in your commentary, but this was still a nice little change-up and definitely worth doing. Thanks Peter!

[@PeterMasella]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DOMINICAAVIATION]

Another amazing one! Thanks for sharing, Peter!

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks again!

[@cldriver]

just beautiful footage of NJ and NYC!

[@PeterMasella]

Thank you very much!

[@beckybauer893]

Stunning video! Utterly gorgeous night views!

[@PeterMasella]

It really is!

[@rajeevk.pathak771]

Another cameo--- a well-made, eductive video from the MASTER !!! Spectacular night-panoramic views of Manhattan and other NYC areas is a cherry on the cake ! Bravo, Pater ! Enlightening...!

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks again, Rajeev!

[@MaryNYC1]

Great video as always. I'm a life long jaded New Yorker and those views over Manhattan never gets old. What a beautiful clear evening!

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks Mary!

[@sandro8771]

One of the best, if not the best night landing video you've ever shot Peter. Keep up the great work. I fly numerous times a year to and from LaGuardia for business and have enjoyed your videos, including the opening frame at the TWA Hotel. Have stayed there several times and enjoyed stepping back in time.

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks Sandro! So much more to come!

[@jeffreyt991]

This was strangely very interesting to watch. Thanks.

[@PeterMasella]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rajeevk.pathak771]

Bravo, PETER (sorry for the typo--) ! Even going along with the typo 'Pater', you truly are a "father" ('Pater', derived from the Sanskrit "Piter=Pitaa" meaning father) of all these videos...😃😃😃 Look forward to watching many, many elucidating videos...!

[@PeterMasella]

Wow, thank you!

[@MrMotoden]

Fantastic visual, almost surreal. Not that we don't enjoy your commentary, but this is really interesting hearing all the exchange. Nice idea.

[@PeterMasella]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DePaul31]

A great video Peter. The clear sky and night view provides a great view of all the NYC landmarks!

[@PeterMasella]

Many thanks!

[@guitarhero918]

Madison Square Garden from aeriel view!! Wow and Empire State Building

[@PeterMasella]

It’s amazing from up there!

[@imzeus3865]

I found your channel when I saw your flight to Vegas. What incredible details! And I am like you, my window shade is always open. Great job on your videos! I have many more to watch.

[@PeterMasella]

Awesome! Thank you and welcome aboard!

[@michaelcoston6259]

Nothing like a clear sky arrival at LGA, day or night (and a clean window). Great quality vid!

[@PeterMasella]

Couldn't agree more!

[@Capecodham]

LGA?

[@cristianofranco2764]

Less ATC, more Peteeeeerrrr!! Just kidding, great video! Cheers from Brazil

[@PeterMasella]

More to come!

[@sampowellmusic]

There’s only one word for this…cool!

[@PeterMasella]

It sure is!

[@FFlyDDrum1]

Nice views and I enjoyed hearing as is atc

[@PeterMasella]

Thank you very much!

[@steini6771]

Ohhhhhh. Just FAB! Thanks -

[@PeterMasella]

:-)

[@richierugs6544]

9:51 is the beauty ticket---every time i fly into NY im hoping the pilot would say we have to circle for an hour, but it never happens

[@erycalynn0307]

I totally agree

[@patricklloyd2100]

Peter, another excellent video. I flew this same view in the daytime and it's gorgeous at night as well. The ATC is a nice addition.

[@PeterMasella]

Many thanks!

[@12345fowler]

Peter, you do a great job. It would be nice that you always give info about aircraft flown (i.e. B737, A320 etc.) I think it would interest your viewers.

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks! Good idea!

[@mmlips]

That was very cool, though your commentary was missed. Thanks Peter.

[@PeterMasella]

Next time! Thanks for watching!

[@Capecodham]

I saw three birds flying along at nine o'clock.

[@nashscan]

@16:08 you can see Bubba sharpening his shank at Rikers.

[@walterr9453]

Amazing video, totally enjoy your work. I did miss your man on the ground "Peter" who gives us all a quick guide to what's happening Earth wise, as Peter flies over head. (The plane Peter flies on board appears to be a Delta Airbus A320) Awesome stuff

[@PeterMasella]

Thank you, Walter!

[@spaceghost4474]

Beautiful night view, Peter! NYC never dissapoints on a clear night. I think I still prefer to get some commentary from you in conjunction with ATC though.

[@PeterMasella]

Glad you enjoyed it! Commentary will be in future videos!

[@brmnyc]

Whenever I'm lucky enough to be on an approach to LGA like this I'll see people around me with the window shades down and I just want to scream "YOU IDIOT!!!" sigh...

[@PeterMasella]

I feel what you mean!

[@cjshardcorepunkmusicvault8474]

The light pollution from Mid-town Manhattan is crazy. Even from that height it is almost too bright to look at.

[@danielwirth8388]

Nice video loved it😂

[@PeterMasella]

Thanks 😅!

[@michaelmichael355]

How do you tune in to live ATC control in the air 🤔 What's the apps name?

[@PeterMasella]

It's in the video's description.
