Just shooting aircraft from the roof of our co-op building in New York City for my new series "Traffic Along the Hudson" (NYC) and shot these two among others.
The jet has 4 engines, not many of these today, blue colors might suggest AirForceOne. Has anyone an idea what AF1 would look like from underneath?
2nd item might be a weather balloon ! ideas?

I think the first photo is an Airbus 380 and the colors suggest its either KLM or Korean Airlines.

This is NOT an Airbus A-380, but an earlier A-340.The 380 has two pylon struts underneath the wing "between" the engines while the 380 has four pylons. The four pylons are clearly shown in the picture.

It looks like a KLM 747 & a Mylar - star party balloon.

I believe #1 is an Airbus A380. Air Force 1 is a Boeing 747. #2 looks like it might be a helium balloon, sort of looks like a star shape. Just guessing here.
On the money.

Your comment brought to mind an old movie. A Shot in the Dark.

Definitely an Airbus 380 but not KLM. They don't operate the 380. I can't find any airline that fly 380's in that colour.

Could be a Korean Air 747 or A380, judging from the roundish insignia on the tail.
KLM does operate the A380s
