At around 7:00pm as we pushed back on our BMI Baby flight back to GLA, I looked out of the window and saw an Eastern Jetstream with its front nose gear retracted! and the fire crew around the aircraft. As I found out later last night, the nose gear collapsed on pushback.

Thanks for looking

Nice shots, good angles, don’t see a lot of these.
watch out for shadows/contrast/sharp on some.

Hope you had a good flight!

Love the shots, particularly like the XL 738 and the Air India T7! Where abouts around the airport did you take these as it seems a very good and high vantage point.
Please post more!!!!:D

Very nice selection from ma local there Jamie! 😀 😎

Although I could make one nitpick :diablo:. One being the Air India is VT-AIR is a standard none ‘ER’ version 200, annoying aswell because I’ve seen all the other three except that one! how is that fair? :p. The afternoon Emirates will be a permanent B777-300ER come July, I guess you were lucky? with it being the last days of the B772 on the route ;).

Too bad I couldn’t make it :(.
