S. hirundo longipennis??

A birder in New York State (eastern USA) photographed this Tern:

He believes it is S. hirundo longipennis which I agree with. This would be the first record for Eastern USA.  Since HK birders have a lot of experience with this race and NA birders rarely (Alaska) encounter it, he would like some comments on the ID.
