Hi David
Thanks for the comments. Yes 300mm should be ok, the beauty of the south side of the 2nd runway is that the bridlepath runs virtually the legnth of the runway so even if you have a "big" lens you just need to walk a bit further down the path

Hi All Whilst visiting family over the half term holidys I managed to get a couple of visits to Manchester, shame that the days I went were cloudy and dull, but never mind :D Monday 23rd, taken from the viewing area. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4496/24101654658_1e931612d6_o.jpg G-JMOE by Mark Phi...

Thanks Gavin
I decided to go somewhere different for a change instead of at the end of 23L, I parked at the hotel and then went 500 yard down the runway so I could get some of the arrivals as well as the departures

Many thanks for the C&C Andy I didnt even notice the :grr: pylon but will do in future, I will move further down the footpath next time but I was so surprised when I got there that the aircraft were arriving on 05R that I just put my bag down and started to shoot!!!!! I will also try and level them ...

Hi All Another family visit up north meant Saturday morning at my usual place with the added bonus of landing on 05R :D . Unfortunately, the weather/light was awful which didnt produce ny decent photos, so these are really just for the record :grr: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7313/15915044423_f86...
