Narrative:
Flying on a IFR flight plan on V229 about 17NM northeast of jfk; I had a near miss with a quad-copter style drone which seemed to by flying a parallel course on the airway about 200 feet below me. We passed very quickly but it was clearly a drone and it wasn't all white; had some coloring. I reported it to ny approach control and they thanked me for the report. Second time in 2 1/2 years I've had a near miss with a drone in the ny area.
