Just a heads up for all the spotters around MAN. Qantas will be operating the QF002 to Bangkok on the 15th August.
It will do its usual charter :- LHR-MAN-BKK. Will probably be due in between 6-7pm.
PS- I am operating on the flight, so If anyone is able to get a picture of it, I’d be greateful! 😉

Thanks to all those of you who uploaded your videos on Youtube! 🙂
Was great to see Simon Lowes HD vid of us landing!
I was sitting in the flightdeck on our ferry flight up from LHR. I was behind the F/O in the S/Os seat and had a good view of all the people who turned upto see us land. I managed a wave to the people on the right side of the runway.
I did record the take-off from LHR and the landing and taxi in at MAN, but for company reasons, i sadly can’t post it on the net. 🙁
Once on stand we felt like celebs. Everyone from check-in staff, customs, police and catering came on to see our aircraft.
Was also good to see we had the capabilty to cause traffic jams on the back road from T3 to the Airport pub hotel, with everyone stopping and taking pics of us when they realised we weren’t a Flybe Dash 8! 😀

Here is a video of the QANTAS 747-400ER at Manchester Airport. Such a shame these are such rare occasions now. The best livery ever…

Difference this year is that it’s positioning empty from LHR to MAN before going en-route BKK-SYD. Can’t wait to see an A380 doing this!
Still using the 05s.
It landed around 1920 and sod’s law has dictated that the 23s are in use as of 1945. So didn’t see it coming in, and not going to see it going out.
