Thousands are watching a live video of Trump's plane waiting to take him to New York

 By Hal Brown

It's impossible to interview a sample of the people who were watching the live video of Trump's plane (here).  The Boeing 757 has been called Trump Force One. 

It might be interesting to find out why they were doing this. 

As I viewed it I could see a few people walking on the other side and a couple of small airport vehicles. The highlight was fuel truck driving by in the foreground. The only thing I could hear was the sound of distant traffic.

When I first found this video only 183 people were watching, as I write this over 6000 people are watching.

I can see why watching this is kind of addictive even if one is never rewarded by being able to see Trump arrive. 

For example these two people had been sitting here for several minutes seeming chatting with each other, and I just saw them turn the vehicle around and drive off.
I was just able to watch a plane taking off:

Later on there will actually be something more or less newsworthy to see, especially if the small jets in the foreground move.
You can watch people working on the plane:


I just heard someone's voice on a loudspeaker talking about moving a car. 

Here's a plane taxiing for takeoff:




I just heard a several cars honking rhythmically in the background. 

Networks, like MSNBC (below), have a camera on the side of the plane where Trump will enter. I don't know if there is a live feed where the public can watch this view:
If someone would rather watch people milling around here's a live feed  of people near Trump Tower:

I read an article in The New York Times (subscription) the other day about how lots of people enjoy going to areas near airports just to watch the planes take off and land.

 In fact, you don't have to leave home to do this. There are live feeds from airports where you can do this form the comfit of your living room. For example he's a live feed from LAX:


Blogs are also posted on Booksie and Medium.

I welcome all my international readers, especially those from Russia (Я желаю вам всего наилучшего) and Brazil. I encourage international readers to make comments and let me know what you think of the blog.
