Manchester Runway 23L Heavies - 16-09-2019

Hello All, Finally made my first visit to Manchester Airport on Saturday 16th September, with a 3 hour drive leaving at 5am, stayed at a lodge at nearby Wilmslow for a 2 day session especially it being a way up from Wiltshire for a day out, so was worth staying. Parked at the Airport Inn and paid th...

Re: Heathrow 18-09-2019 B.A. & Virgin A.350s

Wow!

Cracking shot's Andy as always :thumbs:

That Virgin A350 look's strange, mind you so does the BA one. Strange in the way of not used to seeing the liveries on this, will become normal eventually though!

Re: London Heathrow Bank Holiday Monday 26/08

Thank you, very interesting!! Were you near the road?

If you saw someone with a fold up chair, and wearing a black Airbus A350 T-shirt, that was me, if you were much further down the tree line from the road you probably didn't see me :lol:

London Heathrow Bank Holiday Monday 26/08

Hello all, Not been on here for quite some time! And apart from Fairford RIAT I haven't really been anywhere recently plane spotting, only do RIAT because I get a discounted ticket at work on our coach (any plane spotting I have done has been on working away trips, so logging rather than photos) Nev...

Birmingham Car Park 5 on the day

Hello all, Can you turn up on the day with a car for Car Park 5 or is it pre-book only? Website mentions a lot about pre-booking but nothing that specifically states 'pre-booking is not essential' On a drive up north on Saturday and depending on the weather I'm thinking of pulling off the M42 into t...

Dusseldorf Heavies 06/03/2019

A partially dull day on the 6th March but some nice heavies, nice to see the two Eurowings/Brussels Airlines A340's too, and have a good close view of the Emirates A380 which makes a A320 and B737 around it look like toys :lol: All taken from the viewing deck https://live.staticflickr.com/7923/33661...

Re: Stansted 06-04-2019, another dull Aerozone morning

Brilliant mix there Andy :thumbs:

Cracking shots, didn't even know there was such thing as a Atlas Global 330!

Love the KLM Cargo 747, looks a bit more 'fresher' than the old livery that was getting rather battered on these

Very good catch with that TU-204! Never seen one before, pretty good for noise?

Cracking take off shot, and I do love the AF 777F shot too :thumbs:

Re: March 2019 Photo of the month (POTM) competition

Not much to choose from for me, but thought I'd enter this Eurowings / Sun Express A330 D-AXGF with 'Las Vegas' titles taking off from Dusseldorf Airport on the 4th March on a flight to Bridgetown.

Thank you Wallie! Certainly was the right day to go for them! Those TUI one's seem to move about, didn't see the Robinson's one again, seemed to have popped over to Frankfurt and Hamburg for some operations out of there. Only special I didn't get to phot was the Sun Express 'Der Grinch'. Only ever s...

Re: EDI 26/2/2019

Very good set Mike!

Agreed, the bird-scare shot is something rather different!

Absolute cracking set, enjoyed all of these, lovely catch of the Norwegian Unicef 737, and those prop shots too are just fantastic, I think my fav of those is the Flybe Crash 8 and the Logan Saab :thumbs: :clap:
