ALERT: A LARGE LOW-FLYING AIRCRAFT WILL COAST OVER THE HUDSON ON TUESDAY

July 18, 2017 | 10:01 AM

A 777 will be flying over the Hudson River around 2-3 p.m. on Tuesday as part of a commemoration — a commemoration of what, we’re not sure, but it might have to do with this American Airlines mechanic who has been on the job for 75 years. Talk about job security!

In any case, a 777 is a large aircraft and it’s flying at a very low altitude, so we though we’d give everyone who isn’t subscribed to Notify NYC a heads-up.

“Notification issued 7/17/17 at 5:37 PM. On, 7/18, between 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM, a B777 aircraft will be conducting a commemorative flyover in the vicinity of Hudson River, Manhattan towards La Guardia airport before returning to JFK airport. The aircraft will fly at an altitude of 3000 – 4000 feet.”

Thanks to Stan for the tip.

Hey – let’s freak out New Yorkers to commemorate some guys 75 years on the job!! Am I the only one who thinks this is a bad idea?

Given that there is lots of warning, hopefully people can handle it without too much stress. 75 years is pretty impressive! But I do think it is a really weird way of commemorating it. A flight around the world, maybe . . .

I think planes fly at that altitude all the time over the Hudson on the approach to LGA…
