Later this month Daan and I decided that we were going to give Heathrow a visit, it was a trip with a large price-card for only 4 days but trust me we don’t regret it. First up are some shots from our hotel room from the 3rd floor of the 4**** hotel. Note these shots are edited to get the double yellow tinted window glow out of the way.

First up, Icelandair Boeing 757-200.

The reason why we visited was simple, we wanted to see some different airlines and aircraft(we succeeded). Also we caught all the A380 operators at that time.

Our hotel location, very very very close to the runway.

When the active landing runway was 27R we had a great view. We set-up some chairs in front of the window and grabbed a drink.
Coming in 2010 to Schiphol, can’t wait!!

Never saw it rain so hard! Qantas having a hard time. She was one of the lucky aircraft to land, arrival holdings were full with aircraft and start-up delays up the 55 aircraft!
