Shows the difference from MAN to LHR.
The Lufthansa would be A321’s or A320’s.
The BA aircraft would be literally all sorts.
The Aer Lingus would be A320’s and A321’s.

I like MAN though. I need to make another visit sometime.

If there is a direct headwind of 30knots then yes the ground speed will decrease by 30 knots.

Only thing of interest I have seen today is a Cessna Soveriegn. This is a brand new Citation bizjet, on a sales tour of Europe. It made its first visit to Farnborough yesterday, and I think only came to Europe a week or two ago.

From my office window in Salford Quays I was able to watch the An22 all the way down the 24R approach.

Glorious!! 😀

Glad you saw the AN22, first visit to MAN I believe. The RJ100 you saw would have been G-TBAE, a BAe 146-100 that shuttles BAe Systems employees from Warton to Farnborough twice a day.
