My first trip to LaGuardia was in heavy rain on the visual to 31.

When we reported we couldn't see the airport anymore, they told us to square up our base.

Very strong, resisted the impact of many DAL DC-10's,but the pilings are more than likley much deeper than planned. I hope that wasn't a Trainer barge....

Oh I've done that! ILS 22 circle to 13. They didn't like my circle either.

"Many" DL DC-10s?

Didn't DL only fly those things for a total of 4 or 5 years? (L1011 holdover and then a couple years of Western ones)

We actually did the ILS 13 to minimums... fog had rolled in and the ILS 4 had gone inop. Needless to say, I found the runway and dissipated a good 10 knots of energy into it. Made for minimal need for thrust reversers.
