Stansted, Late 80s

Just three from a place I rarely visited. Think this was a drop in after visiting Duxford. The only decent photo I got of a Belfast. I believe the F-27 is currently on display at Norwich. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52253321256_647e42e66f_c.jpg G-BEPS Shorts SC.1 Belfast Heavylift 1987 Stans...

Heathrow in the 80s and 90s

Here's a few at Heathrow from the 80s and 90s, mainly taken from the Queens Building and car parks. Quality on some is iffy, but it's all about the content. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51858907200_59a9d4b9e5_c.jpg OK-CFH Tu 134 CSA 1980s Heathrow by Andy Bird , on Flickr https://live.staticf...

Not a sight often seen but on this day, with strong crosswinds, runway 23 was in use and we were treated to aircraft landing directly in front of the Queens Building. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51173299518_d6516e374a_c.jpg JA8163 B747 JAL June 1976 Heathrow by Andy Bird , on Flickr

Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester

More old slides from my collection. Totally random, as they cam out the box. The older ones are not great quality but the content brings back good memories of the views we could get from the spectator terraces at Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50983637157_6c6cc...
