Night shots at BHX and ABZ thurs and fri. ..and mystery 744??

Hi all
A trip down the A1 to Spalding yesterday, as i was bouncing along i spotted the below 744 doing circuits and bumps from somewhere?? (no idea what airfield, it is near the A1 on the left as you head south a few miles north of the A1/A17 junction:
(poor quality, apologies, blown up a bit and shot through the van windows)

No idea whose this is…anyone??
After a wasted trip to London, headed north and took a wee visit into Birmingham after dark:

Then a visit to Aberdeen tonight to collect helicopter bits from CHC to go to Blackpool, had a couple of hours wait, shot a fair few (no tripod) only 1 nearly decent shot in utterly minging weather:

They really need to invest in some decent ramp lighting at ABZ 😀
Thank you and goodnight!! :p

Told off for what?? Paying a fortune to be in their car park?? 😡 😡 Bleeding thieving gypsies, tell the muppet your car park bill paid for his days work today!!

Got the train so had no excuse really 😀

We climbed up the bank which gives an excellent view of the runway, quite up high. They weren’t impressed, sent someone round and we were told been watched closely on camera 😮 Oh well, went to sheldon instead as they changed to 15 today 🙂

Lol car park charges are ridiculous though, how they get so many cars there I don’t know. 😮

Monkey, the shots were taken from the old terminal, next to FlyBe hangar and where the biz stuff gets parked.
Cheers all
