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 the fiver for the parking and found the first small mound, and was thoroughly impressed!
Needless to say I took way too many photo's, but still I'll share some variety on here.
For this post, this covers the Heavies using Runway 23L (which was active up until 14:30)

I was very surprised at the amount of A350's and surprised at the lack of any A330-300's!
Thank you for looking at C&C is welcome!

Very nice set of shots - good light, composition and variety of liveries. Glad to hear the time and effort for the two-day trip up from Wiltshire paid off.
In shots 16 and 17 of G-TUIE, any idea what the blanked-out areas on the forward fuselage cover?
Cheers,
M

Hi Mustang,
The blanked out areas on the TUI cover Thomson Airways.
