    Lovely pics–especially the Olympic A340 and NWA–you must have been there when they changed the runway ends to 08R as the OA was one of the last ones to go off 26L!!
    Were you at the crash gate in the Lowfield Heath Rd?
    Happy Spotting!

    Thanks for all the replies–wish it would visit more-poss is Footy related!!
    It certainly climbed up at an amazing rate of knots on the way back(sky was lovely and blue!) maybe was empty!
    Sorry about the maths lesson Josh-the comment was aimed at you as you seem to have a wealth of knowledge about GATWICK!!–wont be long before you can leave school and spot planes all day LOL:)

    And Northwest sadly–wont have any large aircraft to watch soon LOL!!
    Heard a rumour that BA are going to have some more longhaul back at LGW somewhen soon even though Dallas/Houston are going to LHR next month-good job that Virgin have plenty of 747 for me to watch!!!
    The other night( quite late) EZY had 9 consecutive arrivals.

    Would have thought that the Captain would have been a tad unhappy also about the News of the world story today as well:)

    Going back to the BA parade-surely the poor crew had been through enough,without being paraded like that-the SFO and CSD looked really uncomfortable about it—they should have been told to go home to their families.

    More the newspapers at fault I was thinking of –not the BBC

    It does seem that the press love to report negative aspects of crew etc–it would be so nice to hear good things that happen in Aviation:)

    Lets just hope that Sir Richard Branson gets his lawyers out on this one and goes for the press, also finds out exactly who nearly ruined the life of a pilot,making untrue allegations.
    This is the second time this has happened-people are too quick to jump to the wrong conclusions.
    Bitchy Jealous security staff at some of these airports come to mind-the person concerned wants to watch their back!
    Hope the guy concerned can try and get on with his life now.

    Thats a really good one for tracking planes that go into American airspace—use the industrial strength tracking link if you have problems the first time.
    I tracked my friend form just outside lhr to JFK a couple of weeks ago!
    Have fun guys!!!
