I always liked buzzing the harbor and landing on 33R (it was about 2500') in BOS, and flying down the east river to the Statue to 29 in EWR. Of course, this was pre 9-11, not sure if they even let us do that anymore.

Ah yes, the glory days of flying for the Feds--the Federal Reserve Bank! Also, sneaking marginal VFR between TEB or EWR to LGA and crossing Central Park to land 13' taxi back to Marine Air Terminal. Is it still there?

Nothing beats flying the milk run through Southeast Alaska on a VFR day.

Not ILS 22L circle to 29, that's mundane, I only got to do one 11 to 22R and it was a blast.
How about the EWR ILS 11 circle to 29 from the right seat of the E145?

Left turn off LAS 1L or R. Nice view of the strip.
