Your standard FM radio covers from around 88 to 108FM. Aircraft communication channels start from 118 running through to 138 on the same wave banding, with the frequencies 108-118 mainly been radio (VOR) beacon frequencies.

What you want to get is an Airband radio – u can get these quite cheap at about £20 which is hand tuned in, not the little LCD screen. If you want to go a bit fancier, more accurate and a better reception you want to try a scanner.

Companies such as http://www.airsupply.co.uk or http://www.javiation.co.uk are my local suppliers in the North of England. You can get very basic scanners from about £50 rising right through to about £1000 for a state of the art “box” set. I currently use the Yupiteru MVT-3300EU Which is very easy to use and would be ideal for a beginner

Hi Kev,

i’m sure members would help you out with the chair!!

The terminal as you would expect is equipped with lifts, icl the obsevation decks. As for the viewing area i “think” one of the mounds does have a sloped acces ramp for the chairs so you can view over the fence. If not you can view through the fench from the ground!

Hope it helps!

these flights are probably good for them – they park a F100 up at LBA instead of LHR, with the E145 using a smaller stand, so probably a reduced cost, and at that time of night they aint likely to have too many pax for connections – so mainly day tripping buisnessmen! A very profitable buisness

just “becoming” too – hahahaha :p

hell yea bmi would – i’m sure the only reason they operate a lat night LBA-LHR and an ealry morning LHR-LBA is to use the slots, it’s only an E145 overnight whereas the rest are the F100 thats parked up overnight in Leeds!
