Human Factors; Procedure
On approach to 31R into JFK we had a near miss with a silver or white colored drone. It passed approximately 100 FT or less off the left wing at our altitude on approach. It appeared to be approximately 3 feet square in size. I only saw it momentarily as we flew past it. The Captain did not see it.
I was the pilot flying and at some point First Officer said he may have seen a drone out of one of the windows. There was no TCAS alert and I saw nothing while on visual approach and ATC didn't report any traffic in our area. Landed normally.
An air carrier First Officer on a JFK Runway 31R Visual Approach at 1;500 feet reported a 100 foot near miss with an UAV; approximately three square feet. The Captain; pilot flying; did not see the object.
